Antigua Tourist: About Antigua: Getting to Antigua, Staying in Antigua

Antigua is a beautiful island in the Eastern Caribbean, south of Nevis, St. Kitts, St. Barts and St. Martin.

Once known mostly for its Antigua Sailing Week, Antigua is now a true resort destination in the Caribbean. 

A perfect climate for vacation, the island has warm, steady winds, beautiful harbors, and a protective wall of coral reef surrounding it all.

And when the beach turns dark, visitors and locals alike flock to the lively local bars, casinos and outstanding resort restaurants.

Antigua is about 14 miles long and 11 miles wide with Boggy Peak (1319 ft.) being the focal point.  It's a British protectorate and with its sister state Barbuda,  forms one half of Antigua and Barbuda government.
