Beaches galore! There are 365 in total in shades ranging from marshmallow white to cotton candy pink. Some are packed with people while others feel like secluded hideaways.

Must list

• Wander through the forts, exhibits and archaeological digs of Nelson’s Dockyard, the only continuously working dockyard in the world.
• Check out Antigua Sailing Week (last week of April), one of the top regattas in the world. It brings together hundreds of yachts and offers a great excuse to party.
• Visit Devil’s Bridge. Thanks to centuries of Atlantic wind and waves, the limestone of this natural wonder has been chiselled into a stunning formation.
