“The Beach is Just the Beginning” in Antigua and Barbuda. In addition to its 365 beaches, the island of Antigua has been recognized as the focal point of the Caribbean and the region’s yachting capital. This mariner oasis offers immaculate beaches and well equipped marinas. The Famous English Harbour is a major hub for yachts sailing the Caribbean waters.

Antigua hosts several events each year that attract sailing enthusiasts from around the world, like high profile events such as the Mega-yacht Challenge, Superyacht Cup, Antigua Yacht Charter Show and the Antigua & Barbuda Sport Fishing Tournament.

Aside from cruising the pristine waters there are several attractions on the island that will complete the perfect Caribbean Yacht Charter experience. If you enjoy hiking and scenic views, the trails around the English Harbour which are maintained by the Royal Naval Tot Club of Antigua & Barbuda offer some of the best vantage points and signs of the occupation by British Soldiers in the 18th & 19th Centuries. One of the most recently updated trails around the partially restored Clarence House, honeymoon home of Princess Margaret, leads down to the mangroves. There are also stables available to travel trails on horseback.

Numerous reefs flourish beneath the waters and host exciting snorkeling and scuba diving. The reefs can be reached from your yacht charter by either a dinghy or short swim from your luxury yacht. It is also possible to obtain a PADI diving qualification in just one week with some of the dive schools in Antigua.

While the island provides several water sport activities, there are other adventurous highlights that all travelers should take advantage of if they plan on spending any time on the island. Visit Fig Tree Drive, Antigua’s rain forest on a tree top tour through the forest canopy on zip lines. Hover over the Montserrat’s smoking volcano in a Helicopter charter. Land Rover car service may also be arranged to tour the scenic terrain and take guests shopping for local art.

After you have climbed the trails, dived the reefs and flown over volcanic formations your body will be in dire need of some TLC. Take advantage of spa and massage services provided aboard your yacht or visit the Tree House Body Show opposite Falmouth Harbour or the Chakra Body Shop in Jolly Harbour.

 Even if Antigua and Barbuda aren’t scheduled as the main destination for your luxury yacht charter, these sister islands are centrally located and may easily be included in your St. Maarten Yacht Charter or BVI Yacht Charter itineraries. No matter where you may travel throughout the Caribbean, if you seek excitement and adventure Antigua and Barbuda have everything a thrill seeker desires.
