Tagged: antigua, beach bar, beach bar spotlight, caribbean, kon tiki
Calling Kon Tiki Bar and Grill, located on Dickenson Bay in Antigua, a beach bar might not meet the standards of purists but I have no qualms about it. And when I say “on” Dickenson Bay, I mean it’s literally on the bay – as in it’s on the water.

When it comes to the beach bars on South Friars Bay in St. Kitts, there is one beach bar that stands out for its sheer magnificence – Carambola Beach Club. With most of the beach bars on this popular stretch of beach leaning towards the “shack” type on the beach bar spectrum, Carambola, just as it has on the beach, has claimed the opposite side. With concrete, stone and modern amenities abounding, the owners of Carambola set their...
