The newspaper Times Uk has included the activity of swimming with the breeds among the top 3 experiences to live in Antigua during a holiday on this island.
Bathing with Stingrays is by far the most unforgettable experience you can live in your stopover in Antigua. After 8 minutes by boat you reach a floating platform. Once you arrive you will be able to go down to the sea with a height of 150 cm (4.75 ft) then you will touch (the tide may be higher in some days). There is no need to know how to swim because THE WATER IS SHALLOW. It can be done by children from 1 month up to people 90 years old, getting on and off the boat is very simple and accessible even for those with mild mobility problems.
