If you’re anything like me, the first thing you’ll want to do shortly after arriving at Antigua’s VC Bird International Airport, is nip across the road to the Sticky Wicket and enjoy a tall, cold glass of beer whilst gazing out across the cricket ground. Horror stories of arriving at the airport only to be stuck in a two hour queue at immigration are commonplace.

When British Vice Admiral Lord Nelson first moored his ship in one of Antigua’s white-sand bays, he did not even want to disembark.

Charged with establishing a British naval base on the island, Nelson perhaps saw his visit as more work than pleasure. He is rumoured to have described the island as a “dreadful hole” and a “vile place”, and to have returned to his ship to sleep each night. The fact that the Caribbean island is idyllic, with pure beaches, e...

Antigua’s impossibly blue seas and sandy white beaches are so postcard-perfect that you’re torn between the urge to dive into the still, inviting ocean or simply stand and stare, absorbing sunshine that seems to soak you to your core.
