Hermitage Bay

Reviewed By Wrobak - Petoskey, United States

Perfect choice to getaway from stress! We booked a beach “cabana”. Stunning views steps to the beach. We didn’t really even need to leave our room to enjoy the beach. Food was amazing! Chef Sugar’s cooking class was fun and would totally recommend. Galloway and Devin at water sports are a lot of fun and recommend taking a boat tour. This is the place to relax! They are very good with Covid precautions. Jillian, Sandy, Kacy, Melissa, Stoney, Patricia, Shantieca, George and Geron are just some of the friendly helpful staff we encountered on our stay. Only one bad comment is the sand flies liked my husband and son but did not bother me at all.

Zemi Art Gallery contains some fabulous gems of art and handcrafted jewelry. It is much more than a souvenir shop. A great place to browse and out the local art scene.

Took a trip to Fitches Creek to see Gilly’s home and art gallery. Situated on the east coast of the island, tucked away a little hidden gem of Antigua. Quaint traditional houses, brightly couloured, all neatly set out leading to the waters front. It is a little trip out to get there but great to see another part of the island you would not necessarily take in. Fitches Creek is just charming. The gallery is Gilly’s home and you are met by Rum and Ginger, two of Gilly’s dogs. They demand the obligatory stroke and attention before you can browse the wonderful collection of Gilly’s work.There is something of everyone, water colours, acrylics, canvas and paintings on wooden boards.Mostly inspired by Antigua scenes, fauna and wildlife. I chose 3 lovely watercolours and I can’t wait to get them home and up on the wall. It is a lovely experience going to an artists home and workplace, Gilly makes you feel very welcome.

Princess Diana Beach

Reviewed By Pete074074 - Aurora, Canada

This is a World Class beach that is virtually undiscovered. You really have this beach to yourselves as there are few or no people. The water is incredible and normally very calm with a beautiful sand bottom and fantastic clear blue warm water.

Fig Tree Studio Art Gallery

Situated in the heart of the rainforest the Fig Tree Studio Art Gallery is shaded by giant silk cotton and royal palm trees. This gallery provides a fabulous opportunity to purchase original artwork directly from a variety of Caribbean artists. There is a wide range of paintings and crafts on sale, and this gallery is a must to anyone visiting Antigua.

Reviewed By Rose9England

This charming gallery has an interesting selection of Caribbean art, mostly local, and is set in a beautiful rainforest garden on Fig Tree Drive. Sallie, an artist and the owner, is friendly, helpful and clearly has a good eye for beautiful pieces. We have been several times and have taken friends, it is great for presents or an island memento. Easy to find and well worth the trip.

Frigate Bird Sanctuary

Home to one of the largest frigate (or man-of-war or hurricane) bird colonies in the world.

Reviewed By kenfish - New York City, United States

On my recent trip to Barbuda, I got to watch the amazing mating habits of Frigate birds. In a well preserved sanctuary that is only reachable by small boat you can watch the females with their white under bellies get woo by the males with the inflated red pouches. A magnificent show of nature.

Catch some rays while watching the surf at this beautiful pink sand beach.

Reviewed By Lovetotravel0981

By far, my favorite beach on the island! Went there twice. Wide open beach, soft, white sand and cool breezes. Great little bar to get drinks and food. Lobster and Von were great in providing chairs and umbrellas at a reasonable cost and they couldn't be more helpful and kind. Definitely a must go to beach!!

Darkwood Beach

An excellent beach for snorkelling and beachcombing.

Reviewed By worldtraveler0416 - Coronado, United States

Besides the immediate company I experienced this beach with, the beach is beautiful and a perfect place to swim, lay out, snorkel and there is a little restaurant/bar if you get hungry or thirsty. Wind is blocked on that side of the island. Some days were a little crowded for spurts of time while cruise ship people had a few hours to burn. I will go back again but this time leave the bad seed dude behind.
