ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS GROUP (EAG)

We’ve looked for whales. We’re watching turtles. Now, it’s time to see what else is out there in our near-shore marine environment. In collaboration with Antigua Nature Tours (see Stingray City) in Seaton’s Village, the EAG wants to take you KAYAKING! That’s right! Even if you don’t know how to swim, that’s no excuse to not join us. Everyone will be wearing life jackets as we kayak around Mercer’s Creek with the experienced staff at Antigua Nature Tours.

This field trip will be on Saturday 17th August. Once you get to Seaton’s, follow the signs for Stingray City and park in the lot provided. Be there for 8:45am. This trip is a fundraiser to support the EAG’s many projects and activities. Cost is EC $35 for members and EC $50 for non-members, to be paid in full by Wednesday 14th August at 12pm at the EAG office upstairs the Museum of Antigua & Barbuda on Long Street.
