What To Expect
Fig Tree Drive
Fig Tree drive is the best drive in Antigua! Fig is basically the Antiguan name for bananas, but the road is lined with lots of tropical fruit trees such as guavas, mangoes, oranges, and coconuts. Fig Tree Drive in Antigua is the major road opposite the pink coral Catholic Church just outside the town of Liberta, north of Falmouth. An Amazing view!
Guests can enjoy kayaking through the scenic lagoon to admire the lush mangroves, which are truly unique in our region.

5.00We had a great experience. Sativa took us through the mangroves and snorkeled with us. He was very informative and showed us all kinds of local sea life. Jensen was our boat driver and he was fabulous. Super nice and funny. And Terry, our Driver. picked us up at the hotel and brought us back, made a few stops along the way. He was amazing. I can’t say enough. We had a wonderful day.
Brilliant

5.00The entire experience was extraordinary! South Coast Horizons is amazing! We were picked up by Terry at our resort and he was amazing! Knew the island well and even took us to some shops on our way back! Our Kayak / Snorkel instructor was extremely knowledgeable with years of experience we felt very safe! Bring bug spray for the mangrove kayaking ! The boat driver was a hoot and equally as knowledgeable as our instructor- they took us out to the reef by boat and you jump in right from there! They keep eyes on you the entire time swimming in the open ocean and it’s absolutely breathtaking! 5 stars plus 2!!!
Very satisfied

5.00Very cosy, and since we booked of season it was a “private” tour. Very nice guide and driver, that just made the trip better. Huge plus that they did support being environmentally careing.
Amazing trip

5.00I accidentally rated this excursion as 1 star! Many apologies. I meant it to be a 5 star review. Wife and I really enjoyed it. The staff and organization of the tour was excellent indeed! Would definitely recommend it. Of the 5 excursions we did on the cruise, this would be the one we’re likely to repeat.
Nice, low-key snorkeling and kayaking trip

5.00This is a pretty low-key tour. The kayak through the mangroves is fairly short but nice. Snorkeling is also nice, but not life changing. This would be a nice tour for beginners or those who want something simple that doesn’t take the whole day. The snacks at the end was a nice touch.
Great time!

5.00We had a great time kayaking through mangroves. The snorkeling was good. We saw a lot of fish and several sea turtles. The staff kept a close watch over everyone. They provide snorkel, mask, and fins. They also provide a floatation device. You take a van ride to get to the mangrove, get on the kayaks and paddle for about 15 minutes. Then you get on a boat for about 10 minutes to the reef. We snorkeled for about 30 minutes. All of the staff was great.
The kayaking was super...

4.00The kayaking was super cool but unfortunately because of the strong winds the snorkeling was disappointing.
Friendly staff but...

3.00Friendly staff but overall not worth the price. The kayaking is maybe a 20-minute round trip. Unfortunately, the wind that day made conditions unsafe to snorkel the reef. It might be better on a sunny day, but still not worth the price.
