Solos’ Tour Leader Phil’s solo travel tips for Antigua

Phil Roberts is known for his sense of adventure (and humour), putting a sprightly spring in the step of those new to the world of solo travel. So when he’s the Tour Leader in a place like Antigua—he leaves no stone unturned. After three trips immersing himself in the breathtaking beauty of this Caribbean gem, discover Phil’s recommendations for island life in Antigua…

Pigeon Point Beach Antigua

Antigua’s best-kept-secret

“Visit Rendezvous Beach! It’s possible to go there & see no one else. Magical.”

What’s the weather like in Antigua during September and October?

“It’s hot (25 – 30 degrees), not too humid & although it might rain, the chances are it won’t be for long.”

‘A great base for exploring’

“Solos guests stay at the Catamaran Hotel. Its position makes it a great base for exploring. You can get out of bed in the morning & be in the Caribbean in less than two minutes. It’s in the south of the island, overlooking Falmouth Harbour. Nelson’s Dockyard is a 10-minute drive.”

Night & day

“There are lots of options for the day, some do very little, others do quite a lot or somewhere in between. We usually go out and about two or three of the nights and stay local the remainder of the time for dinner and drinks. It’s a very Caribbean Island vibe.”

Perfect for first-timers

“It’s great value & it’s a marvellous example of what a group holiday has to offer. Antigua Solos Exclusives is ideal for solo travellers who appreciate authenticity, ambience & a less-intensive holiday experience.”

Our Reviews

“I’m sure you will enjoy it, I have been on three solos holidays to date and the people I’ve met have been great.”

“I’ve been travelling with Solos for nearly 20 years, on and off. The reason is for exactly what you want – you meet like minded people… and have loads of fun!”

“I’ve been on loads of trips with Solos over the years and can honestly say you will not regret booking your 1st one!”

“The feeling you have once you go away on your own is worth all the nerves before! I was so very anxious the first time but now having done it 4 times, I love it!”
