Situated in the heart of the Caribbean, the nation of Antigua and Barbuda is made up of two sister islands and several smaller islets. On the island of Antigua, a blissful beach for every day of the year is only the beginning of all that you will soon discover.

There are plenty of fantastic trekking trails around the island, taking in sandy beaches, rainforests and dreamlike coastal views. For a challenging hike, put on your hiking shoes and visit Mount Obama, Antigua’s highest peak. From the summit, enjoy the panoramic views before descending to Cades Bay for a delightfully refreshing dip in the ocean.
