Need Beach Suggestions for Antigua

We need some help selecting a beach in Antigua. Has anyone been to Castaways Beach or Turner Beach that can tell us how far they are from the pier. Also, the approx cost of the cab ride.
Thanks!

Hi cruzingduo! Our favorite beach in Antigua is Dickensen's Bay. It's a nice wide beach with water sports if you want them (snorkeling is only available if you go out in a boat--not a good idea). There's a nice little bar on the beach and Sandals shares the beach.

We love the scenery and the water is easy to enter and exit--no drops.

Try posting on the Community Forum for answers on the Castaways or Turners beach areas.

Pinneapple Beach on Long Bay was the best for us.
Only two hotels on the beach. One has only 25 rooms, so the beach does'nt have that crowded feeling.
The sand is like powder. The right side of the beach has good snorkeling. There are beach chairs and umbrellas available. Beach bars and food are also to be had.

I agree with Olga. We went there last year on the Golden Princess and we took a taxi to dickenson bay. Our driver was great, gave us his card and we called when we were ready to go back to ship.
