Amazing Antigua - Safe Natural Harbours

Antigua holidays are a typical example of the relaxing Caribbean holiday. It's the same extraordinary features of Antigua that attracted Admiral Nelson to appoint it as a British naval base in the 18th century that are still an important part of the appeal of Antigua holidays.

A coastline of safe natural harbours and protective coral reefs make Antigua holidays the ideal Caribbean destination to unwind on powdery sand beaches or swim in the clear warm waters. The coral reef is an attractive feature for snorkelling and diving enthusiasts.

Book An Antigua Holiday For 'Sailing Week'

The maritime heritage of Antigua attracts impressive yachts and sailboats to the grand Georgian architecture of Nelson’s dockland, especially during 'Sailing Week', an annual event when Antigua plays host to a top class regatta.

Antigua holidays can even offer an opportunity to practice hobbies like birdwatching. A visit to Antigua's sister island of Barbuda is a must for the keen twitcher, as this small coral island features one the region’s most significant bird sanctuaries.

Attractions Of Antigua

Holidays to Antigua are an opportunity to spend time on a very attractive Caribbean island that is the ideal place to relax and soak up the sun. Birdwatchers should take a trip the neighbouring Barbuda where the largest bird sanctuary in the Caribbean offers the opportunity to see over 170 different species.

Cruises around the islands are a popular Antigua holiday excursion and a great way to enjoy the glorious weather and the incredible Caribbean waters. Walking and hiking tours are also an enjoyable way to take a look around the island and take in the beautiful scenery of Antigua.
