Best Beaches

Antigua is renowned for its diverse coastline, offering everything from secluded snorkeling spots to active hubs for local sports. This list features Deep Bay, where a shipwreck lies submerged in the center of the bay, and Half Moon Bay, which transitions from calm snorkeling waters in the north to windsurfing waves in the south. Visitors can join locals for cricket and volleyball at Fort James Beach or watch planes depart from Jabberwock Beach. From the quiet, turquoise shores of Jolly Beach to the beachcombing opportunities at Turners Beach, these locations represent the island's finest shorelines.
