Antigua Activities
Though Antigua is chock full of things to do, most travelers come here to do not much of anything on its famous beaches. Supposedly with one silken beach for every day of the year, Antigua prides itself on the stretches of sand that wrap its shores. The best beaches in Antigua are found on the reef-protected northwestern and southwestern coast, but the eastern shore of Antigua does boast several pristine strips as well. For the busy resort experience, try Runaway Bay in the northwest of Antigua, where tourists and Antigua locals alike converge in its bustling restaurants and bars. The southwest of Antigua is much less developed and beaches in this region, as a result, are much less crowded. You'll find quiet Darkwood Beach and Rendezvous Bay here. Families visiting Antigua should check out the east coast of Antigua, where fine white and pink sands grace Long Bay and Half Moon Bay beaches, respectively. For the more active-minded, Antigua is also a destination of sporting pursuits. You can hike the trails around Antigua's historical hilltop forts, windsurf in Dickenson Bay, or cycle through the countryside of Antigua. One of the more popular activities in Antigua is its Swim with the Dolphins program, a thrilling opportunity to get up close to one of nature's most intelligent species. Antigua's dolphins are penned in a 5.5 gallon lagoon at Marina Bay, creating an intimate yet natural environment for visitors to interact with the friendly creatures. Visitors to Antigua may also partake in or watch island cricket, tennis, horseback riding, and any number of other sports that unfold daily on this active island.
