Sandals St. Lucian Grande or Sandals Antigua
My wife and I are looking to travel to either Sandals St. Lucian
Grande or Sandals Antigua in June 2004. We would like some feedback or recommendations on which may be our best option. We stayed at Sandals Halcyon in St. Lucia a few years ago and loved it... but the new Grande looks even better. Does Antigua or St. Lucia have better weather in the middle of June? Any help would be appreciated. |

Any help would be appreciated. Antigua is probably slightly more likely to be sunny and clear, since it's [some might say 'boringly'] flat. Temperature will be the same. -- Ken Tough |

Antigua is not flat its hills can be seen from about 20 miles or so
when sailing. but Barbuda is flat it can very easy be missed without compass or gps even from 5 miles at sea it cant be seen. Antigua has very little rain.

Sandals St. Lucian Grande or Sandals Antigua
In Antigua the highest mountain is 450 meters u do not know nothing
i.d.i.o.t. Antigua can be seen from over 100 km (kilometers), in clear weather, it is definatly not flat at all.

Hey, I used to live in Montserrat. I know Antigua well. In comparison to any of the volcanic islands [shall we say Dominica or St. Lucia, or even St.Kitts?] it is largely, boringly flat. Montserrat is almost three times that height. This means Antigua does not get the rainforest and concomittant appealing lush jungle and thus wildlife that those other islands have. But it does have beaches, if you like that sort of thing. -- Ken Tough |
