Antigua is the larger half of the twin-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda in the eastern Caribbean's Leeward Islands. Locals like to say there is a beach for every day of the year, and the claim holds up: the coastline is a sequence of coves, reefs and long white strands, with Georgian naval history at English Harbour and a lively capital in St. John's.

Why Antigua for your vacation

Antigua is the Caribbean's all-inclusive sweet spot. The island has more high-quality all-inclusive resorts per mile of coast than almost anywhere else, ranging from adults-only romantic hideaways to sprawling family properties, and most sit directly on calm, west-facing beaches. It is English-speaking, easy to get around, and compact enough that you can see English Harbour, Shirley Heights and the wild Atlantic coast in single day trips. Sailing is in the island's blood, so catamaran cruises, snorkeling trips and the annual Sailing Week are part of the experience. Nonstop flights from the East Coast make the whole thing feasible in a long weekend.

What's included in an Antigua package

Every package is built to order. A typical Antigua package includes:

  • Round-trip airfare from your home airport to Antigua (ANU) on major airlines, with connections arranged where needed
  • Your choice of accommodation: all-inclusive beach resort, adults-only resort, boutique hotel, villa or cottage colony, from well-known resort brands and independent hotels
  • Private or shared airport transfers on arrival and departure
  • Optional add-ons such as a Barbuda day trip, a circumnavigation sail, a rental car, travel protection or seat upgrades
  • All-inclusive meals and drinks, breakfast included, or room only, depending on the property

We can also combine Antigua with a Caribbean sailing through our cruise packages. Call for current pricing on your dates.

Best time to visit Antigua

Antigua is one of the drier islands in the Caribbean, with daytime highs in the low to mid 80s Fahrenheit all year. The dry season from December through April is peak season, with steady trade winds, low humidity and near-constant sunshine; Sailing Week in late April and early May closes it with a festive finish. May and June are warm, quiet and good value. July through November is the wetter season, with brief showers and the summer festival season in late July and early August. Hurricane season runs June through November with the highest risk from August to October, so we suggest travel protection then. Antigua stays on Atlantic Standard Time year-round, one hour ahead of Eastern Standard Time in winter and level with the East Coast in summer.

Where to stay: areas and resort styles

The northwest coast around Dickenson Bay and Runaway Bay is the classic resort strip, with calm water, water sports and several large all-inclusive properties close to St. John's. Jolly Harbour on the west coast has a marina village, villas, golf and long sheltered beaches, ideal for families and self-catering stays. The south coast around English Harbour and Falmouth Harbour is the yachting and dining hub, with elegant boutique hotels and historic surroundings. The east coast near Long Bay and Half Moon Bay is wilder, with reef-protected water and exclusive resorts on private beaches. Adults-only all-inclusives cluster on the west and south coasts; family resorts favor the northwest. Tell us whether you want everything included, breakfast only, or a kitchen, and we will match the property.

Things to do in Antigua

  • Tour Nelson's Dockyard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and restored Georgian naval base at English Harbour
  • Join the Sunday sunset party at Shirley Heights for steel bands and views over the harbors
  • Swim at Half Moon Bay, Ffryes Beach, Darkwood Beach and Valley Church Beach
  • Take a day trip to Barbuda's pink-sand beaches and the frigate bird sanctuary
  • Sail around the island on a catamaran with snorkeling stops at Cades Reef
  • Zip-line through the rainforest canopy and hike to Mount Obama
  • Explore the markets of St. John's and the island's historic sugar mills

Getting there from the US

Antigua's airport receives nonstop flights from several US gateways. Typical flight times are roughly 3.5 hours from Miami, 4 hours from Atlanta or Charlotte, 4.5 hours from New York, and 9 to 10 hours from the West Coast with one connection. US passport holders need a valid passport and do not require a visa for tourist stays; carry proof of return travel and accommodation, and verify current requirements before travel. Antigua drives on the left, and taxis and organized tours are the easiest way to get around if you would rather not rent a car.

Who this package suits

Couples and honeymooners are Antigua's core audience thanks to adults-only all-inclusives and secluded coves; ask about business class or first class flights to arrive rested. Families like the calm northwest beaches, kids' clubs and villa options at Jolly Harbour. Seniors appreciate the easy transfers, English-speaking service and sheltered water; see our senior travel reservations. Weddings, reunions and sailing groups can secure seats through group travel flights. Solo travelers do well at social all-inclusives on the west coast.
