Enjoy the Prickly Pear Private Island experience, with boats leaving continually from our beach at Hodges Bay. Prickly Pear will whirl you to a private island paradise, with crystal clear ankle deep water on a sand bar stretching to the sea.

While staying in Antigua, we kayaked today to Prickly Pear Island. Due to COVID-19, the kitchen is closed. No one has maintained the island over quarantine. I did however get some amazing footage of seagulls. We also snorkeled and saw many fish 🐠. It was an experience to remember.

Prickly Pear Island is an islet approx. 650 metres off the north shore coast of Hodges Bay on the much larger island of Antigua, West Indies. [1] The island measures approx. 50 metres north to south, and approx. 50 metres east to west.

Walk out and swim over live coral, lots of tropical fish, shells and we saw a few sea cucumbers. There is a small bar on the beach and you can rent s chair for $5 US. They have snorkels and find to rent to but if a tour comes in they may be reserved so bring your own! It wasS great!!!

This tiny islet off Antigua plays the part of an uninhabited island paradise to a T. Ringed by coral reefs with a white sandy beach, Prickly Pear Island gives visitors plenty of space to relax on lounge chairs while sipping tropical cocktails from the bar.
