Donkey sanctuary

4.6(145 reviews)

About

In Antigua, Donkey sanctuary sits on an unnamed road in Bethesda, on the eastern side of the island. Its 4.6 out of five from 145 reviews places it among the highest-scoring stops in Antigua. First-time visitors should expect to meet the resident animals at close range, with staff on hand to explain the work. St. John's lies to the west, while English Harbour and Falmouth are a short drive south. Jolly Harbour, Dickenson Bay, Runaway Bay, Cocoa Point and Half Moon Bay are all reachable by road. The Atlantic hurricane season covers the Caribbean from the start of June to the end of November. Creole languages with French and English roots are spoken widely across the Caribbean alongside official tongues.

Bethesda is a quiet corner of Antigua away from the main resort strips, so a hire car or taxi makes the trip simple. The site's 145 reviews come from visitors who made the journey out east. Donations and visits support the animals kept on the grounds.

Green and hawksbill turtles nest on Caribbean beaches, and coral reefs support reef fish and spiny lobster. Travel between Caribbean islands depends on ferries and small aircraft, since no roads connect them. Arriving in the morning leaves time to pair the sanctuary with a drive to English Harbour.
