Creator's Key Takeaways

this is a smaller cruise port but it's surrounded by local authenticity

I recommend a visit to Dickinson Bay Beach it's beautiful and a taxi there is pretty cheap

the local currency here is the East Caribbean dollar although most of the vendors and shops do accept US currency

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Leave camo clothing on the ship as it's illegal for civilians to wear in Antigua
✓Visit Dickinson Bay Beach for a beautiful and affordable taxi ride
✓Explore the downtown area of St. John's for authentic local flavor
