Antigua and Barbuda holidays

About Antigua and Barbuda

Hold up a brochure against any view of Antigua & Barbuda and you’ll struggle to tell the difference. This pair of islands are textbook Caribbean, with swaying palms studding sugar-white beaches that arc like crescent moons around sheltered bays. Antigua holidays are a dream come true, with the larger and more well-known island boasting 365 beaches – one for every day of the year. But it's not just about the stunning sands; Antigua has been a haven for sailors ever since Horatio Nelson was stationed there in the 18th century. Every month, regattas and yacht races take place on the shimmering waters, a legacy of British colonial rule that has only become more entrenched over the years. Meanwhile, Barbuda is often overlooked, but its blush-coloured beaches, minimal tourists and reef-filled waters make it a must-visit destination for any Caribbean holiday.
