Antigua and Barbuda Travel Guide

Antigua is the main island of the nation of Antigua and Barbuda and almost all people of the country live here, most of them in the capital Saint John's. Antigua is perhaps the island which most typifies the modern day view of a small Caribbean destination. With few other natural resources, tourism dominates the local economy of both islands. Stunning white sand beaches abound, and on Antigua there is no shortage of attendant high-end resorts. While Barbuda is quiet and one of the least visited islands in the region, Antigua boasts incredible beaches, culture and a lively carnaval. Many people come here to relax, but the island has great diving, snorkelling and hiking as well as some thrilling adventurous activities. Barbuda still has the beaches but little tourism-based infrastructure.
