Beaches
Whether it’s 365 beaches or not, there’s no doubt Antigua offers far more idyllic, white sandy beaches than you could possibly hope to enjoy in a single holiday. From pleasantly animated family beaches to secluded coves only reached by sea.

Romance
You don’t have to be on a honeymoon holiday to enjoy romantic Antigua 5 star hotels, top-class Antigua restaurants, cosy beach bars, sensational sunsets and seductive music.

Barbecues
Antigua beach barbecues are a national institution! Lobster, red snapper, suckling pig, saltfish, curry, great beer and that famous rum punch.

Antigua Music
From beach bands to steel bands, from calypso to reggae, and all the latest trends in Caribbean music. Whether an impromptu beach barbecue, a stylish nightclub or carnival time, music is an essential part of life in Antigua.

Watersports
Antigua simply excels in watersports, providing top-quality professional instruction and idyllic conditions for learning windsurfing, parasailing and kite boarding. A paradise for sailing and exciting deep-sea fishing.

Snorkelling & Diving
Amazing tropical fish, beautiful reefs, interesting wrecks and the superb climate ensure Antigua offers everything from relaxed beach snorkelling to challenging cave dives. Antigua diving enjoys a deservedly high reputation.

Boat Trips
A tremendous variety of Antigua boat trips. Children love the glass-bottomed boats and the pirate ship cruises. Take a picnic cruise to a deserted beach, sip cocktails on a romantic Antigua luxury cruise, or simply hire a small boat and potter.

Nature & wildlife
Don’t miss out on Fig Tree Drive on the scenic southwest coast of Antigua, with its atmospheric mix of banana plantations, swaying coconut palms, mangos and lush pastureland. Reptiles, pelicans, birdlife and relaxation on Great Bird Island. Swim with stingrays at Stingray City.

History
Popular Antigua excursions include the beautifully restored Nelson's Dockyard at English Harbour, with its market, museum, restaurants and cultural centre. For an insight into life in an old sugar plantation, visit Betty’s Hope. Cricket is part of Antigua folklore: experience the atmosphere if you can.
