Antigua famously boasts 365 beaches — one for every day of the year. A private open-top 4x4 tour takes you to the most spectacular, from the powder-white Half Moon Bay to the dramatic limestone cliffs of Devil's Bridge, far beyond the reach of walking tourists.
What to expect
Climb into a customized open-top 4x4 and head inland through sugarcane fields and mango groves, your guide explaining the island's plantation history as red-footed boobies wheel overhead. You'll stop at Devil's Bridge, a dramatic natural limestone arch battered by Atlantic surf, before continuing to the flawless turquoise crescent of Half Moon Bay — consistently rated one of the Caribbean's finest beaches. A private swim stop, a rum tasting at a local distillery, and a panoramic stop at Boggy Peak (Antigua's highest point) complete the circuit. The guides know where the locals swim, where the iguanas sun themselves, and which coconut vendor makes the coldest drinks.
Good to know
Tours depart from St. John's or the cruise pier. Book private vehicles directly via the website. Half Moon Bay is a national park — entrance is free. Wear light, breathable clothing and bring reef-safe sunscreen. Allow 5–6 hours for the full island loop.
