Top 10 Hidden Gems Things to do in Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda

August 22, 2021 Russell Mellin

Antigua has hundreds of beaches, from the bustling Pigeon Point to the kitesurfing paradise of Jabberwock Beach. It's fun to mix it up—a day spent in a secluded cove, another spent people-watching at a tourist magnet. When you’re tired of sun and sand you can shoot ‘em up at Reservoir Range, where archery and air pistols are a fun way to work out any lingering pre-vacation stress. A tour of the Antigua Distillery is a spirited way to experience a true taste of the island.

Our school offers high-quality kitesurfing and wing foiling in Antigua. We offer tuition with IKO certified instructors (International Kitesurfing Organization) with the latest and safest equipment. We are located in Nonsuch Bay, on the windward shore of Antigua, in the Caribbean, where the trade winds blow strong and constant. The bay is completely closed by the reef and offers a condition of warm and flat water, ideal to learn and progress. Updated equipment, newest teaching methods and power boat assistance make the best combination for your perfect learning experience. The lessons will start from the beach of Green Island, a tiny island windward to Nonsuch bay, with white sand and crystal blue water; a perfect landing/launching area for kites.

Springhill Riding Club

Reviewed By emmabC3132AL

I have been to spring hill riding club on many occasions and it is by far the best riding school and experience i have had anywhere in the world. The horses are all lovely and extremely well looked after, Suzanne and Kent are laid back and very helpful and accommodating. I always rode Joy on each visit and she is the most calm and beautiful horse, a true gentle giant. I'm now living back in the UK and miss my Saturday beach rides to rendevous bay. I hope to be back soon. For anyone procrastinating on whether or not to do this ride whilst in Antigua, DO IT. The memories will last a life time.
