In addition, beach activities may not be supervised or accompanied and so you should take care to satisfy yourself as to the safety of the beach and/or the sea at the time of your excursion. Please exercise caution when entering the sea as the seabed and aquatic environment is capable of springing surprises and we have not inspected the beach or seabed for its safety. Children must be supervised by you at all times near water. All activities on the beach, water and in the sea are undertaken at your own risk. You’ll need to take swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and flat shoes that can be worn in the water.

Take a drive through the rugged scenery of Antigua before your ocean racing experience begins.

Step aboard a specially-designed Beneteau 40.7 yacht for a head-to-head race filled with fun and excitement.

After a quick safety briefing, you will head out while your crew run through ‘tacking’ and ‘jibing’ and invite you to participate in sail trimming, winch grinding, time keeping or driving! If all this activity sounds a bit much, simply do nothing, sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

After the thrill of the race, you will have a celebratory rum punch as you cruise through the waters of Antigua’s yachting mecca. Cast your eye on the multi-million dollar mega-yachts, and capture a glorious view of the picturesque Nelson’s Dockyard.

To round off your Antiguan adventure, you may choose to purchase some photographs as a souvenir of your unique race.

You should also ensure that no one in your party is taking medicine that carries a warning about impairment of physical or mental abilities. If you are pregnant this type of excursion may not be appropriate for you. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are fit and well enough to take part in the activities booked and you are reminded to take care for your own safety. Because of the risks associated with activity excursions, you may be asked by the excursion provider to sign a document which may affect or limit the excursion provider’s liability. Comfortable flat walking shoes are recommended.

BEACH/WATER RELATED EXCURSIONS
For any excursion involving water, guests are reminded to exercise particular care. Alcohol and eating a full meal should be avoided before swimming. If buoyancy aids are provided for an activity they must be worn at all times. You should bear in mind that the sea is unpredictable. Lifeguards are unlikely to be present and there may not be a flag system to indicate whether or not it is safe to go in the water. In addition, beach activities may not be supervised or accompanied and so you should take care to satisfy yourself as to the safety of the beach and/or the sea at the time of your excursion. Please exercise caution when entering the sea as the seabed and aquatic environment is capable of springing surprises and we have not inspected the beach or seabed for its safety. Children must be supervised by you at all times near water. All activities on the beach, water and in the sea are undertaken at your own risk. You’ll need to take swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and flat shoes that can be worn in the water.
