All about Antigua

Planning an Antigua vacation? We’re here to help!

With white sands, turquoise waters and lush greenery, Antigua is every bit the archetypal Caribbean paradise. Yet while it would be easy – and very enjoyable – to while away a week or two relaxing on one of the island’s many beaches, there is much more to Antigua than sun, sea, and sand. For one, there’s the island’s rich history. As a former British settlement, Antigua is peppered with vestiges of its colonial past, including the fascinating Nelson’s Dockyard. These days, Antigua is a hub of Caribbean culture, and its candy-colored towns and villages are filled with friendly islanders and lively local businesses.

Antigua’s VC Bird International Airport is located around 5 miles from the city of St. John’s and is serviced by direct flights from across Europe and the United States. The best time to visit the island is in winter, between mid-December and mid-April, when the daytime temperatures average 80 ° F. Avoid traveling to Antigua between August and October, when humidity is high and hurricanes are a very real possibility.

 

Take a day trip to Barbuda

Antigua’s sister island Barbuda lies about 30 miles to the north, and while it is not significantly smaller, it is home to just a fraction of the population, with approximately 1,500 people living on Barbuda compared to over 80,000 on Antigua. As a result, the island feels much more rustic. Outside of Codrington, the island’s only town, the main attractions on Barbuda are the magnificent sandy beaches and a large lagoon. Nature-lovers, in particular, should be sure to visit the lagoon, which is a nesting ground for the unusual frigatebirds. The male birds have large scarlet gullets which they can puff up as large as a soccer ball to attract mates. Barbuda can be reached in around 90 minutes on the Barbuda Express catamaran service, making it the perfect destination for a day trip.

Discover Antigua’s history

Dive into the Caribbean Sea

Explore the island’s capital

It might be a little less picturesque than some of the island's smaller towns but Antigua’s capital St. John’s more than makes up for that with its fascinating culture. Visitors looking for a taste of the real Antigua are spoilt for choice with its restaurants and bars, many with live bands playing the island's typical music. St. John’s is also interesting from a historical perspective: the colonial architecture throughout the city is a testament to the town's complex past as a center of the slave trade, including the famous cathedral of St. John the Divine, which was rebuilt twice following earthquakes. For more insight into Caribbean's history of slavery, be sure to visit the city’s Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, where the topic is explored with great sensitivity.
