Home to no less than 365 beaches (one for every day of the year!) and a blissfully laid-back atmosphere, it's no wonder people return time and time again to the sunny shores of Antigua. An island nation with some truly unforgettable experiences and plenty of adventure, Antigua has something to offer everyone who visits...
A Classic Caribbean Romance
The perfect setting for an intimate escape, this enchanting island beckons couples with its distinct allure. Thanks to its
beauty and uniqueness, Antigua is known as the 'romance capital of the Caribbean' for good reason, filled with memories to be made. Boasting a romantic and relaxing ambience, watch the fabulous coastline glide by with a glass of sparkling wine on a magical sunset cruise in a beautifully designed catamaran with the person you love most.
Where Sustainability Meets Adventure
As a nation surrounded by azure water, verdant mangroves and picturesque reefs, it's hardly surprising
that sustainability is close to the heart of many locals. Learn about the ecology and history of the area as you sail through clear waters, countless reefs and past luscious green nurseries on a unique eco tour. Try and spot some of the native wildlife as the crew regale you with colourful anecdotes and stories of local folklore or dive into the crystal-clear waters and discover a vibrant array of marine life.
Alternatively, head to Antigua's lush rainforest and fly through the sky on a unique zip line eco tour, where you can experience the thrill of gliding through the treetops as you admire the stunning views from above.
Moments on the Water
The sea doesn't just have to be admired from the beach or below the waters - the island's love affair with the ocean (and yachting in particular) is a huge attraction in itself. So, why not learn how to sail a square-rigged schooner, live out your ultra-luxe megayacht dream or visit for the island's annual sailing week?
Unforgettable Cultural Gems
To truly immerse yourself in the essence of this captivating island, a journey into its past and a taste of its culinary
delights are essential. Visit local historic sites - exploring the ruins of old sugar plantations and learning about the island's colonial past. Wander through the cobblestone streets of Nelson's Dockyard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and imagine the bustling activity of the 18th century.
But no trip to Antigua would be complete without indulging in the local cuisine. From fresh seafood delicacies to mouthwatering Caribbean flavours, the island offers a culinary experience like no other. Sample the famous Antiguan black pineapple, known for its unique sweetness; savour a plate of jerk chicken, bursting with spicy flavours; or treat yourself to a glass of rum punch, a cultural symbol that represents the relaxed and friendly atmosphere of the Caribbean.
