Antigua
Quiet beaches and pretty, authentic, laidback Caribbean living.
Antigua remains an SJ Villas favourite. The island retains much of its old-world Caribbean charm and has not developed as fast as some of its neighbours. The legendary 365 beaches remain pristine and unspoilt with white sand and crystal-clear water. A ‘yachties’ paradise, there are plenty of water sports, although jet skis are only permitted on a few beaches.
The choice of restaurants is getting better and better and there are several good food stores on the island. The traditional tourist spots of Shirley Heights and English Harbour are still great fun to go to and the sunsets spectacular.
Direct flights make it a good destination for short breaks.
