The Antigua region
If you’ve never visited Antigua there are delights galore in store for you. The warmth of the people of Antigua equals the warmth of the sun that shines most of the time. When it does rain it’s called ‘liquid sunshine’. Antigua enjoys near perfect year round subtropical weather and is one of the driest islands in the Caribbean. Average annual temperature is 79F (26C) – Jan and Feb being 77F(25C) and August 82F (27C). The hurricane season lasts from June to November with September the busiest time for storms. However, statistically only four hurricanes hit the islands every 100 years.
The history of the island is alive and evident everywhere and you will find much to occupy your time exploring historic sites and attractions – unless you are intent on lying on the beach every day soaking up the sun. These are the finest beaches in the Caribbean of course and offer world class diving and sailing with a wealth of other water sports.
The island measures 15 miles east to west and 11 miles north to south. It covers 108 square miles and is the largest of the Leeward Islands. Nature lovers will delight in luxuriant flora abundant everywhere.

Its just a ten minute stroll to Jolly Beach and the local harbour where there is a large supermarket which caters for most needs. Jolly Harbour also offers a variety of restaurants & bars, a casino, shopping & excursions, an 18 hole golf course, water sports, boat hire, tennis, squash & gym.
