My first impressions of Antigua was definitely all about how colourful it. The houses are the most amazing pastel hues and even the coconut trees blend beautifully with the blue skies! It’s also really warm here but I guess that’s like saying ‘sugar is sweet’. 🙂 I effectively spent my first day here relaxing (which … Continue Reading

Most visitors to Barbados (me included) stay on the west coast of this stunning and pristine Caribbean island and rightly so. Its tranquil waters, beautiful sandy beaches and the opportunity to swim with sea turtles is most definitely a big draw that I can never question. After spending a good few days exploring this area, I … Continue Reading

Recently, I had an amazing opportunity to join the Calabaza Sailing crew on the most spectacular tour of Barbados while visiting the Island. As you can imagine I was so excited that I woke up at the crack of dawn to charge, re-charge… pack, re-pack my GoPro for what was going to be an exciting … Continue Reading

I arrived in Antigua at around 5.30pm and after a couple of hours of getting through immigrations, customs and weaving through the island in a taxi, I finally arrived at what I would be calling home for the next week – St James Club. By the time I got in, it was too dark to take … Continue Reading

It’s fairly popular, in fact, I think it’s the first thing I saw at immigration. You’ll need a taxi to get here unless you happen to be based in Seaton Village. Or if … Continue Reading

Oistins Fish Fry has become somewhat of an institution in Barbados, especially on a Friday night. I can’t say I had heard too much about Oistins before arriving in the Caribbean but as soon as I touched that Bajan soil I somehow managed to hear about it everywhere… and for very good reason! After spending an … Continue Reading

One of the very first things I was told as soon as I arrived in Antigua was to visit Shirley Heights.  I didn’t know much about it but Lloyd who had been before assured me that that there were two main reasons I had to visit Shirley Heights. 1.) It has one of the best views … Continue Reading

There are not many Abbeys where you can fill up on delicious rum, get wolf-whistled in the forest gullies and learn how to play croquet so a trip to St. Nicholas Abbey Barbados definitely makes for a mandatory addition to your Bajan itinerary. The home of rum, Barbados has a range of distilleries that still … Continue Reading

A trip to Antigua would be incomplete without a little visit to St John’s – the capital of the island. I visited outside of the main hours most visitors on the island tend to visit – unintentionally I might add, I just happened to have rented a car and subsequently decided to make the most … Continue Reading

As nice as a resort might be, after chilling out for the first couple of days, I was itching to head out and see more of Antigua.  TIP: When you’re in Antigua, instead of taking taxis everywhere you should rent a car and even if you don’t drive, get a driver with a rented car … Continue Reading
