NELSON’S DOCKYARD, ANTIGUA
ENGLISH HARBOUR, ANTIGUA
Day 1: Antigua to Barbuda (1h 20m)
After exploring the historic Georgian English Harbour,
Nelson’s Dockyard and the spectacular views from Shirley
Heights, leave the polished charm of Antigua behind and
discover Barbuda, a tranquil gem perfect for nature lovers.
Largely untouched and still recovering from the devastation of
Hurricane Irma in 2017, Barbuda remains blissfully
underdeveloped, o昀昀ering a haven for wildlife. Its limestone
landscape has formed intriguing caves and sinkholes, ideal for
exploration. If you’re not already captivated by the pink-hued
sand and crystal-clear waters, the abundance of birdlife and
pristine environment will surely draw you in. Its raw beauty is
a peaceful contrast to other destinations.
Day 2: Barbuda to St. Kitts & Nevis
(2h 50m)
Next, sail to the twin islands of St. Kitts and Nevis,
where colonial history and natural beauty combine.
These islands are less crowded with resorts,
preserving their cultural essence and charm. On
Nevis, hike the lush slopes of the dormant Nevis
Peak for panoramic views. Over on St. Kitts,
explore the energetic capital Basse-Terre. The
National Museum gives a glimpse into the region’s
past, while the town’s lively bars, markets, and
duty-free shopping add vibrant energy to your visit.
