Itinerary
English Harbour, Antigua's historic district, is focused on the 15sq. miles of Nelson's Dockyard National Park. Developed as a base for the British Navy in the great age of sail, the harbour served as the headquarters of the fleet of the Leeward Islands during the late 18th century.
At Shirley Heights, are the partially-restored fortifications of the harbour's colonial observation post; the view from Shirley Heights extends out over the harbour and far across the Caribbean to neighboring islands. Shirley Height was named after St Thomas Shirley (1727–1800) Shirley was first Governor of the Leeward Islands in 1781.
Here, visitors can watch an impressive multimedia presentation of Antigua's history. From its initial settlement to independence. Observation decks at Dow's Hill provide another fine view of the harbour. As do the ruined fortifications of Fort Berkeley, located on the far side of the bay. And, reached by a walk around its perimeter.
A glimpse of our history and a drive through the Southern coast of Antigua.
A view on the north eastern side of the island, excellent spot for photo's, a not to be missed site. Over the centuries these powerful foaming breakers have carved out a natural limestone arch called Devil's Bridge and created blowholes through which geysers of spouting surf crashes with spectacular results.
At Betty's Hope, discover the history of Antigua's most famous sugar plantation. With full standing sugar-mills and a museum
