Anyone hunt the beaches of Antigua

I understand that Detecting is against the law on Antigua. I worked for a company that had a resort on Antigua, I was about to go until I found was told any detecting was not going to end well. So I have never been there. However;
Jamaica ALL METAL DETECTORS are on the BANDED list. On my 3rd trip two of us had ALL OUR DETECTING EQUIPMENT confiscated by customs on the way into Jamaica. We got all the gear back on the way home. The ordeal in getting the gear back took about two hours. Now I have tried to take detecting equipment aboard a NCL cruise...CAN"T. NCL have metal detecting equipment on their banded list. There are other places to go, detect, and enjoy our hobby without having a vacation turned into a nightmare.
