Make Anything Happen w/Captain Akeale

5.00Awesome private excursion- just my wife and I. Can't say enough great things about Captain Akeale. Whatever is on your Antigua bucketlist- he can make it happen. We wanted to explore quiet remotr beaches on the west side of island and some snorkeling. There are so many opportunities and landed on Clinching Beach we snorkeled in Deep Bay (ship wreck) however visibility was less than ideal, so headed to a great spot snorkeling spot away from the crowd at Caded Reef... saw a baby sea turtle while at Cades and two small stingrays along with loads of colorful reef fish. Along the way- Akeale was a great guide and pointed out numerous Antigua landmarks, restraunts, hotels and famous homes. Total trip time was 4 hours (by our request). Unfortunately, Mother Nature wasn't cooperating and it was cloudy or raining 70% of time. Nevertheless, we would do it again! Fyi- Boat; 26ft length, single 100hp Yamaha. This is not a speed boat, but is fast enough to get you there and can accommodate near shore waves and moderate chop without problems and water spray. Booking Trip- easy, and host Michelle was good at responding in a fairly timely manner. Willing to pick us up on beach at Royalton CHIC (Dickenson Bay Beach)

5.00Exactly as described. My family of five had an amazing time. The private experience really made the difference — we noticed other boats with large groups, which looked fun but crowded. Being on our own felt special and relaxed. We were visiting on a cruise, and the location was very easy to find. Communication throughout was seamless and clear. Highly recommend!

5.00We had a lot of fun and a beautiful day on the water. Easy pick up and drop off next to the cruise ship terminal. Great snorkeling and then to a small beach with a small stand that grills fish and lobster for lunch. Would absolutely recommend this private tour. The company was quick and clear with all communications. Thank you!!
Recommend 100%!!!

5.00What an incredible afternoon! The knowledgeable captain took us to a snorkel site that was unparalleled (and we snorkel a lot!) after realizing the “usual” site was murky. He was conscientious so as not to waste our time and wanting us to get the most out of our trip! The afternoon include a stop at a beach only accessible by boat which was a treat! We will totally book again if we find our way back to beautiful Antigua!!
Perfect - Worth It!

5.00Our excursion through Viator was top notch from the booking to the convenient on beach pick up/drop off location to the personable, private, laid back Antiguan snorkeling and coastal tour with Akaele - Red Red Wine. He was knowledgeable and most hospitable. This experience was well worth the money! Thanks to all that made it memorable for my husband and me.😎🏖️
Just do it!

5.00I highly recommend this experience. Our captain, Akeale, was very welcoming and tended to our every need. He picked us right up from the beach and accommodated our requests for how to spend the day. He took us to two great spots on Katie‘s reef and we basically had the place to ourselves. Akeale is very knowledgeable about the island and had great recommendations for places for us to visit. The tuna sandwiches and pineapple on board were a nice treat after so much swimming!
