ANTIGUA
Antiguans claim to have 365 beaches a different one for every day of the year and their island's many beautiful soft, sandy beaches and coves certainly constitute its main attraction. The most popular resorts have hotels located either on beaches or close by, many of them taking their names from the beaches. However, for the more energetic, there is plenty to see and do away from the beaches. The island is rich in colourful bird and insect life; offshore, beneath the waters of the Caribbean, are splendid tropical fish and coral and there are several sites of historic interest. |
