2SIX8 Craft Brewery

Antigua's first and only Micro brewery. We have beer on taps as well as bottles. Only bar on the island with draft beer. Check out our Facebook page for our seasonal beer. All ales are made in house.

Thank God for 2SIX8!!! Antigua was in desperate need of good beer and 2Six8 has saved them from a fate of suffering from inferior beer syndrome (IBS). IBS (in this case) is where you’re stuck on an island and there is nothing but small, plain lager beers to drink. Thank you 2Six8 for saving us all! Great beer and wonderful staff. Nikki was kind and entertaining, and Hops the dog was adorable and fun loving. Our favorites were the Goat Farm pale ale and Frig It amber. When we arrived they had just run out of canned beer since they had sponsored a large event the previous day, so what did they do to rectify this? They canned more beer for us and we picked it up the next day. Fantastic!

Nelson's Dockyard

Reviewed By neilmF2117MN - Nuneaton, United Kingdom

Loved it here lots of history and also lovely to stroll along the front dreaming about owning one of the wonderful boats, there is so much to see and do here, our only downside was the limited time we had here due to being on an island tour, this is definitely a place on the list to re visit

Pigeon Point Beach

Reviewed By rochellem65 - Hampshire, United Kingdom

Pigeon Beach English Harbour is one of the most beautiful beaches in Antigua, clear sea, soft sand, play area for kids & facilities. Topped off with the best restaurant in Antigua at one end called Catherine's and a humble relaxed beach bar at the other end called Bumpkin's. Just turn up and enjoy this beautiful location and spend the day blissfully tuned into pure relation????100% recommend!

Galleon Beach

Reviewed By RiderofTrees - New York City, United States

Turtles, nurse shark, lots of fish and a sunken ship that’s easy to get to and only 15’ deep. Best snorkeling on the island. And highly recommend. I also highly recommend hiking up to see the pillars. One of my favorite parts of the visit. It’s not difficult , but also not easy...but so worth it. Add Mary’s height, and it’s worth a day. We drove (driving in Antigua is a whole ‘mother story!) and parked on the road by the beach. It was a very easy walk. We went on a Thursday just passed high season so there was barely anyone there, but the one bar was also close. Make sure you pack water and snacks just in case! Also, there are no public restrooms

Antigua's Donkey Sanctuary

donkey sanctuary and small animal (dogs and cats) shelter operated by Antigua & Barbuda Humane Society, a non-profit corporation registered under The Companies Act.

Reviewed By RachelAndJohnR

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.
