TAKE OFF FOR THE PERFECT HONEYMOON

Carlisle Bay: Cultural haven

Beyond the typical resort fare — fine dining, beaches, water activities, etc. — Carlisle Bay sets itself ahead of the competition with a lush background in history, art, and countless other fruits of an intriguing civilization. The “Gateway to the Caribbean,” settled in the southern coast of Antigua, is just minutes away from Bird Island, Indian Town National Park, the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, St. John’s (capital of Antigua and home of St. John’s cathedral), and many more enriching destinations.

But it is not only the mind that is nurtured at Carlisle. In addition to healthy menus offered at both restaurants, the resort welcomes its guests to enjoy the fully-equipped gym, partake in one of numerous athletic activities (tennis, windsurfing, golf, kayaking, snorkeling, and various other sports), or even join a guided hike through the nearby rainforest.
