Pink sand and stingrays - Antigua AND Barbuda


An undisturbed stretch of coastline, 17 Mile Beach is the perfect spot for a quiet and secluded stroll or a picnic on the beach. Accessible by boat or helicopter, the beach is great for getting away from it all because of its remote location.


Dickenson Bay, Antigua

Another beach is Dickenson Bay, where an array of water sports and excellent swimming are available to those seeking a beach day. In contrast to 17 Mile Beach, at Dickenson Bay, facilities and umbrellas are available for rent.


St. John’s, Antigua

The central port city for the nation of Antigua and Barbuda is St. John's. A mishmash of colorful colonial houses and market stalls weighed down with exotic fruits. St. John's Cathedral provides a break from the heat and a peek into the island's colonial past with its neo-Baroque architecture. Shopping is also a popular activity in St. John's, with duty-free shops and souvenir stalls dotting the markets and main streets.


Nelson’s Dockyard National Park, Antigua

This park is a magnet for tourists, with multiple attractions that explore the dockyard's history. Spend an afternoon wandering through restored warehouses and looking at fancy yachts to understand how the old and new mesh together in Antigua.


Museum of Antigua and Barbuda


If you want to dive into the history of these gorgeous islands, look no further than the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda. It’s small and features exhibits on the pottery and weaving history of the island, as well as geology, colonialism, and independence.

Half Moon Bay, Antigua

Providing the perfect location for one of the most stunning beaches in the Caribbean, the idyllic shore of Half Moon Bay is a bit out of the way, but once you find it, it'll all be worth it. With white, sandy shores sandwiched between greenery and dazzling water, Half Moon Bay is a great place for sunbathing and snorkeling.
