Off to Antigua next month and will have 6 full days there. Can anyone recommend any must dos? Some ideas I have are:

Day trip to Barbuda
Half Moon Bay, Darkwood Beach and Rendesvouz Bay
Swim with Stingrays
Visit to the Capital - St John
Devil's Bridge
Tour a Sugar Plantation
Visit to donkey sanctuary
Rainforest hike
Drive up Fig Tree Drive
Sunset from Shirley Heights
Snorkel with turtles
Meet giant tortoises

Recommendations/tips welcomed. Thanks in advance! Will have a hire car
 
I don't know if they still happen, but reggae parties up at Shirley Heights were great.
But this was over 20 years ago.

If you have the time and resource, maybe get a boat over to Montserrat for a night or two.
 
Went last year about this time of the year, great place. We did Shirley Heights / Nelson’s Dockyard they do a cook out on Sundays and yes still have a band, catamaran trip around the island, definitely recommended, caught the local bus into St. John on Saturday for the market, an experience on the bus!
 
Thanks all! I have read that Eastern Caribbean Dollar is now the best currency to use but will do some more reading
