Day 2 – Dickenson Bay (10 nm)

After your boat briefing and one to one chart briefing, leave the dock

and sail north to Dickenson Bay. Dickenson Bay is located on the

northwestern coast of Antigua, close to Cedar Grove. While Dickenson

Bay is not the most secluded beach in Antigua, its intensely white

beaches and tranquil seas attracts many visitors. The beach is dotted

with hotels and restaurants, a casino and discos. During the day water

sports businesses rent sunfish, windsurfers, and jet skis. Water skiing

is also available. Horseback riding and tennis courts are available. A

busting, mile long beach and home to several bars and restaurants: Sneaky Pete’s Beach Bar, Pepperz n

Lime Restaurant and Coconut Grove Bar and Restaurant. All perfect for sundowners and enjoying some

stunning sunsets to the west.

Day 3 – Barbuda (Low Bay)(30 nm)

From Dickenson Bay, recheck weather and then sail north to Barbuda

to reach Barbuda when the sun is high in the sky. Barbuda is home to

the Frigate Bird Sanctuary, which is located in the Codrington Lagoon.

Pre-book your frigate bird sanctuary tour with Goldilocks and pre-

order fresh lobster or fish to be delivered to you. Anchor at Low Bay

for your first night and enjoy stunning sunsets.

Day 4 – Barbuda (Coco Point)(10 nm)

especially if there is any northerly swell. Snorkel, kayak or simply
