With a choice of hotels and outstanding Caribbean beaches, the island of Antigua is an ideal holiday destination. Once home to Admiral Horatio Nelson’s Caribbean fleet, with shallow waters, protective coral reefs and its location in the Caribbean it is easy to see why this was such an important naval base. Today these same attributes make this a Mecca for sailors and holidaymakers alike. The favourable winds are perfect for sailing, the coral reefs offer fantastic snorkelling and the secluded bays are a magnificent sandy retreat.
With 365 beaches, the island has plenty of room for everyone to enjoy a sandy beach break without the usual crowds. Whether you enjoy the resort-like experience with bars and reggae music or quiet sands off the beaten track, Antigua has it all. Board a yacht for some of the best sailing in the Caribbean, here the warm trade winds will power you across the waters. Antigua is home to more than just great beaches; here the history of the island since the British occupation is easy to see. The Georgian dockyard in the south of the island was once home to Nelson’s fleet and now provides an insight into the history of the island during this time. In the North of the island the capital of St John’s with its white baroque cathedral is easily spotted from the sea. St John’s is a lively hub of activity and home to many hotels and guesthouses. Enjoy the steel drum and reggae music which fills the air in the bars or head to a quiet restaurant for some Caribbean spiced food. With a good selection of international restaurants you will always be able to find something that you like. With so much to do from day trips to the neighbouring island of Redonda with its bird sanctuary, snorkelling on the reefs or sailing on a yacht, a trip to Antigua will never be boring. Come here and enjoy paradise!
