READ THE GUIDE & BOOK CHEAP FLIGHTS TO ANTIGUA

First timers

If beachcombing, sailing and trekking through tropical rainforests equals your idea of holiday heaven, take advantage of cheap flights to Antigua. Charter a yacht at the English Harbour, go wind-surfing and diving or zip through the jungle on a canopy tour. And, when the sun goes down, Shirley Heights is the place to be for cocktails, steel bands and barbecues.

Frequent flyers

Stray beyond the tourist track with boat trips to Great Bird Island from Dickenson Bay. Or, if you’ve explored the beaches of the north, take the Fig Tree Drive, a 20-mile scenic route through the lush tropical hills and fishing villages along the southwest coast of Antigua. The island boasts a different beach for every day of the year - that’s 365 good reasons to book a return flight to Antigua.


Shops

French perfumes and English bone china are just a few of the best buys in Antigua. Heritage Quay Complex, with more than 50 duty-free stores is the place for bargain hunting after you’ve taken your cheap flights to Antigua. For handmade crafts, including pottery and jewellery made with semi-precious Antiguan stones, avoid the touristy shops and go foraging in the Public Market in St John's.

Nights

If you've booked your flights to Antigua with calypso nights in mind, a heady mix of live music, limbo-dancing shows, casinos and bar action awaits you in the vibrant capital of St John’s. Why not join the locals for a crab race? This eccentric sport is the perfect accompaniment to lazy sundowners and takes place in beachside bars across the island.
