Why Antigua & Barbuda.

1. 1

   Antigua famously has 365 beaches — one for every day of the year — from the glassy calm of the Caribbean west coast to the surf-washed Atlantic east.

2. 2

   Nelson's Dockyard is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only continuously working Georgian-era naval dockyard in the world — English Harbour still fills with masts.

3. 3

   Antigua Sailing Week each spring is one of the world’s premier regattas; the harbours crowd with superyachts and the island runs on rum and trade winds for a week.

4. 4

   Barbuda's Frigate Bird Sanctuary in the Codrington Lagoon shelters one of the largest colonies on earth — thousands of birds, reachable only by a local boat.

5. 5

   The Shirley Heights Sunday sunset party — steel pan, barbecue, and a panorama over English and Falmouth Harbours — is the most joyful weekly ritual in the Eastern Caribbean.
