Antigua · CANOES & KAYAKS
The north-east mangroves are calm water even when the coast is not, and most paddles finish on a reef or a beach nobody drives to. These 8 tours compare on distance, gear and whether snorkeling comes with them.
Bike through St. John’s, kayak a mangrove lagoon, swim at a beach, and walk to Fort James on Antigua’s friendly small-group tour.
“Our guides are amazing- so knowledgeable and such a passion for the island. Great entrepreneurial spirit. A great mix of activity without being too taxing in any area.”
Kayak Antigua’s mangroves, snorkel Cades Reef, enjoy island views, snacks, rum punch, and hotel or port pickup on this four-hour tour.
“Do not hesitate to book this excursion. We had a really good time! Our pickup time has miscommunication, but we knew that island time is a factor, so sweat. After arrival, we were treated with respect, patience, and kindness. We kayaked, snorkeled and had light refreshments. At no point was this experience negative. I highly recommend the tour.”
Explore Antigua by glass kayak and snorkel over coral reefs, with calm mangroves, marine life, transfers, snacks, and rum punch.
“Great tour - glass kayaks gave us a great view of the marine life below. Crew and guide were very friendly and made everyone feel welcome. After the kayaking in the sheltered mangrove area, we were taken by boat to a coral reef for some snorkeling. Highly recommend this tour!”
Float above Antigua’s clear water in a transparent kayak while a drone captures romantic, social-ready photos.
“Our photographer Jevane and his assistant Brandon were extremely helpful. They instructed my group and gave great direction. I don’t doubt that all of our pictures will be amazing! It was a really fun experience.”
Kayak Antigua’s lagoons, snorkel with turtles and see shipwrecks on a private two-hour adventure with pickup and local guidance.
“We had a great time kayaking, snorkeling and we enjoyed a local lunch with our guide Cheyvone. He was so organized and ran such a great adventure. He was fun, friendly and made the day great!”
Review Antigua’s 6-hour zipline and kayaking tour, with rainforest ziplines, mangroves, snorkeling, lunch, transport, price, and practical tips.
“Amazing day and great way to pack in multiple activities! My family loved the zip lining, lunch was great, and then finished up with kayaking and snorkeling in the beautiful water!! Rum to finish the trip off was the perfect ending. We did this with our 2 kids (10 and 12) and they loved it all too! Highly recommend.”
Review of Antigua’s Under the Sea snorkeling tour, with Cades Reef, stingrays, kayaks, drinks, transport, costs, and booking advice.
“Stingray experience was fun but very chaotic on arrival. Transport company was terrible. Ended up stranded with a flat tire and forced to detour to airport to pick up another passenger.”
Kayak through Antigua’s mangroves, snorkel near Great Bird Island, and relax on a quiet beach with transport and drinks included.
“Great tour around Antigua. Very comfortable van and great tour guides. The beach was beautiful and not crowded.”
Every kind of day out on the islands, and the best of each.
