SHIRLEY HEIGHTS

NELSON’S DOCKYARD

ST. JOHN’S CATHEDRAL

FEATURED Port of Call ST. JOHN’S, ANTIGUA

Ever since the Naval Dockyard was established as Great Britain’s most important Caribbean base in Antigua in 1784, its fringing coral reefs, crystal clear waters and hundreds of secluded beaches have made it a favourite West Indies destination. The 70-foot bell towers of the 19th-century St. John’s Cathedral dominate the skyline of Antigua’s capital city, a harbinger of the quaint colonial architecture found throughout. Check out exhibits on indigenous tribes, plantation life and the nation’s passion for cricket at the Museum of Antigua & Barbuda before browsing the city’s bustling jewellery and clothing boutiques. Revel in tropical vibes travelling across the island, passing candy-coloured villages on your way to Nelson’s Dockyard National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site that’s been in continuous operation since 1745. Enjoy sweeping vistas at Shirley Heights Lookout, Antigua’s southernmost point, before sipping a signature Antiguan rum cocktail at one of English Harbour’s historic inns.
