Caduceus - To Dickinson Bay, Antigua

To Dickinson Bay, Antigua

Caduceus

Martin and Elizabeth Bevan

Sun 27 Mar 2011 17:00

Date 1800 – 27 March 2011

After a leisurely start we set off at 1030 to sail the 22nm to Dickinson Bay on the north coast of Antigua. A beautiful day sail with text book turquoise seas.

We arrived in time for a late lunch and anchored (well) off the Sandels resort. A gentle afternoon followed with swimming and relaxing.

We are well situated for tomorrows sail north to Barbuda.
