Antigua to Barbados Itinerary
Day 1 - St John's (Antigua)
Embark Royal Clipper in St John's.
Day 2 - Terre de Haut (Iles des Saintes)
Iles de Saintes consists of eight tiny islands. Only two are populated and Terre-de-Haut has a leisurely, French atmosphere. This charming island is only three miles long and the small village of Bourg has brightly painted houses. For swimming and snorkelling, Pain de Sucre is a favourite spot.
Day 3 - Cabrits (Dominica)
Cabrits National Park in northern Dominica includes orchid-festooned rainforests, breathtaking waterfalls and the remains of a volcanic crater.
Day 4 - Martinique
Martinique is a beautiful island with a French flavour and strong Creole traditions. Spend the day relaxing on one of the stunning beaches.
Day 5 - St George's (Grenada)
The 'Spice Island' of Grenada has a mountainous interior, dominated by Mount St Catherine, and tumbling waterfalls. Cinnamon, cloves and ginger grow here, and the shore is a winding series of white and black sand beaches edged with rich vegetation. Perhaps walk to Annandale Falls outside St George's, and for shopping, make for Grand Anse.
Day 6 - Tobago Cays (Grenadines)
The idyllic Tobago Cays are five small uninhabited islands and a lagoon protected from sea swells by Horseshoe Reef. Enjoy a day exploring, relaxing and beachcombing.
Day 7 - Marigot Bay (St Lucia) - Soufriere
St Lucia is well-known for the Piton twin-peaks, its rainforest and the indigenous St Lucia parrot. The verdant landscape gives way to banana, coconut and mango plantations. At Marigot Bay, the marina is full of glamorous yachts, boutiques, bars and restaurants, and the area of Soufriere has sulphur springs created by the nearby volcano, and beautiful Anse Chastanet beach.
