Sailing is a favorite activity, and snorkeling and scuba diving are popular as well.
Antigua's many attractions include historic landmarks that date back to the colonial era. The British Royal Navy used English Harbour as a Caribbean base, and Lord Nelson himself dropped anchor in Brown's Bay. The Bay Villas are located on the island's eastern shore, close to the famous Mill Reef Yacht Basin and historic Harmony Hall. Set on a beautifully landscaped four-acre estate in the curve of Brown's Bay, the villas enjoy wonderful views of the sea, including a small group of lush green islands just offshore. Each two-bedroom villa is attractively decorated in island style, with colorful fabrics and rattan furnishings, and ceiling fans in the bedrooms.
