When you are in the South of Antigua you must try a visit to English harbour and Nelson’s dockyard. English dockyard has become a bit of a playground of the rich and famous. You are certain to see some 100ft boats and will be walking on the same walkways as people worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
Then a few hundred yards down the road is where the rich and famous from a few hundred years ago just to reside. Here is Nelson’s dockyard where for a few dollars you can walk through the market outside and then step back in time to see the historic buildings and port which the English used to rule Antigua and much of the rest of the Caribbean.
English Harbour and Nelson’s dockyard is worth a visit and will only take an hour or two and so it’s the perfect activity if you have a spare afternoon when on holiday in Antigua.
