A former British colony, Antigua is no stranger to the Caribbean’s beaches and historical landmarks. It is home to a vibrant culture of unique cuisine, calypso and soca music, cricket and an August carnival that celebrates emancipation from slavery. 

Antigua and Barbuda are known for their combined 365 pink and white sandy beaches, but the islands are also unique for their lack  of rivers and lakes with the main source of freshwater being the average annual rainfall of 1,000mm.

Barbuda’s population continues its long-standing traditions of fishing and small-scale farming, as well as being home to undisturbed beaches, and lagoons home to one of the world’s largest colonies of Frigate Birds.
