Sail And Dive Package Launched in Antigua

Horizon Yacht Charters Antigua has launched an eight-night 'Sail & Dive' package designed to accommodate sailing divers that want to enjoy everything Antigua has to offer above and below the water.

Jolly Harbour, Antigua (PRWeb) January 27, 2007 -- Horizon Yacht Charters Antigua has launched an eight-night 'Sail & Dive' package designed to accommodate sailing divers that want to enjoy everything Antigua has to offer above and below the water. Three nights are spent ashore with up to five dives over two days and five nights are spent sailing on a Horizon yacht between 40 and 50 feet in length.

The shoreside accommodation is provided in Antigua's premier resort marina - Jolly Harbour Marina - in one of their waterfront two-bedroom, two-bath villas with air-conditioning throughout. The diving is offered in association with Indigo Divers, which together with Horizon Yacht Charters, is based at Jolly Harbour Marina. The only requirement is an internationally recognized Open Water PADI certificate. Complimentary refresher courses are also offered for those that haven't dived for a year or more.

After spending two days exploring some of the 40 dives sites off Cades Reef on the west coast of Antigua, guests will board a yacht chosen from one of the fleet's 3, 4 or 5 cabin monohulls or catamarans. After a yacht and chart briefing, guests then set sail to experience the unspoilt anchorages and stunning azure waters of Antigua and Barbuda for five days or more. Skippers are available for parties with insufficient sailing experience.

"Quite often we find that guests don't necessarily want to spend their entire vacation afloat or don't want to set themselves up for diving off their yacht," said Jackie Ashford of Horizon Antigua.

Package prices range from US$2400 - US$3100 depending on the time of year. To find out more about the packages available contact the reservations team at info@antiguahorizon.com.

Horizon Yacht Charters has a fleet of 63 yachts throughout the Caribbean with 15 yachts in Antigua & St Martin, 14 yachts in Grenada and 34 in the British Virgin Islands. Horizon is the authorized Caribbean dealer for Fountaine Pajot catamarans and the Regional dealer for Bavaria Yachts.
