Also known as Fort George, this fort was built in 1689 to defend the British settlers against invasions from the French and the Arawak indians.

An early morning hike up this hill provided exercise, a picturesque view and great opportunity to see a historical site. The st. George Fort as it is also called gives one a glimpse into bygone slavery days.

We visited the Antigua Donkey Sanctuary while on a private SUV tour through the Sandals Grande Antigua Island Routes desk. However, you can visit the sanctuary on your own or on other tours, too! When our tour guide gave us the option of stopping at the Sanctuary before lunch, as animal lovers we knew we had to do it. We didn't stay too long, but after brushing and petting some of the donkeys in the public petting area, we were satisfied. We stopped back in the office to return the brushes, and we were able to purchase a few t-shirts for ourselves and our family back home in cute designs and colors. We also got to "adopt" a donkey, and the money from the adoption would be used for the care of all the animals. If you visit, please donate or purchase to support the Sanctuary if you're able! Otherwise, your visit is free, but we're sure that especially with less visitors due to Covid's impact on tourism the Santuary can probably use more help than ever.
6. Colesome Farmers Market
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6 reviews
At Colesome, you can expect to find a farmers market with just about every kind of fruit, vegetable, herb or spice grown on the island located on a beautiful 3 acre farm. All of our produce is of the highest quality yet we still manage to have some of the lowest prices on island. We offer free tours of the farm where you can pick your own papayas, tomatoes, kale, lettuce and other fresh produce.

Multimedia exhibitions on the island's history, from the American Indian inhabitants to British colonialism to today.
Reviewed By clarkwhite - Ipswich, United Kingdom
I was sceptical as I walked in here, tourist attractions not being my thing. However I was completely won over. There was a 15min video presentation about the islands history which was part dated and part informative. Then one of the staff, Kevin, took us on a brief tour of the site and the view below of Nelson’s Dockyard, English harbour and neighbouring islands. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and we both really liked him. Well worth visiting as you go up to Shirley heights

9. Fort Berkeley

Reviewed By saronic - Zurich, Switzerland
Fort Berkeley sits on a promontory of the Middle Ground peninsula between English Harbour/Freeman's Bay and the Falmouth Harbour protecting the entrance to the first bay. To get there it is a pleasant walk of 10 minutes from Nelson Dockyard with views across to Galleon Beach. On the site there are the remains of a Powder Magazine, of a Guard House, as well as a bastion with a cannon from 1805 (as is written on it). Very recommended is a continuation of the walk from here towards Pigeon Point Beach on the mile-long Middle Ground Trail. It leads past some more military ruins and through an interesting dry vegetation. In between there is a steep climb and descent, for which ropes have been installed. Good footwear is recommended, although I did it without problem with good hiking sandals. At the other end of the trail one arrives at Pigeon Point Beach, a great place for a swim.
