Why Cruise Passengers Use This Antigua Schedule
- ✓Antigua's 2028 table shows St. John's call windows so you can size Dickenson Bay transfers versus a full-day Circle Island sail.
- ✓Heritage Quay shopping is walkable from the pier — published 2028 arrivals frame when independent beach taxis should leave.
- ✓Southern Caribbean loops often pair Antigua with Barbados or St. Lucia — comparing 2028 volumes prevents overcommitted beach days.
- ✓Multi-ship 2028 weeks sell out popular catamaran seats early, so overlap counts drive advance booking.
