Antigua Yacht Charter

Antigua is the beating heart of Caribbean yachting, an island whose deep natural harbours and maritime history have made it the region flagship for the charter world. English Harbour and the beautifully restored Nelson Dockyard, a UNESCO World Heritage site, form the backdrop to the Antigua Charter Yacht Show, where the finest yachts in the Caribbean gather each winter. Legend has it the island claims a beach for every day of the year, and cruising its coastline it is easy to believe: powder-soft crescents tucked beneath green hills, protected bays for swimming and snorkelling, and reef-sheltered anchorages like Nonsuch Bay where the water glows turquoise. Ashore, the rhythm shifts between the polished restaurants of Falmouth and the easy charm of beach grills serving rum and fresh-caught fish. Steady trade winds and a coastline of endless coves make Antigua a destination sailors return to year after year.
