Love Golf?:
There is a 71 par, 18 hole golf course in Jolly Harbour. Golf buggies and clubs are available for hire at the club house which is about a 20 minute stroll from the villa. Bookable and payable locally.
Just want to relax?:
Antigua has 365 beaches all of which are open to the public. Jolly beach is perhaps the best on the island - not too crowded, lovely white sand and great beach bar and restaurant. You can arrange watersports and diving from the beach or just soak up the sun!
Jolly Harbour also has a pool in the main area with several restaurants very close by.
There are 364 other beaches to relax on too! Hiring a car a great way to explore the island and finding your favourite spots. My favourite beach after Jolly beach is Half Moon Bay - a beautiful beach off the beaten track, perfect for picnics, sunbathing and playing in the waves (which are sometimes quite big!).
Want to get Out and About?:
Car hire is available from Jolly Harbour and is well worth doing to get the most out of your stay in Antigua. The island is beautiful and the local people very friendly. My personal favourite days out are:
St. Johns - for great duty free shopping,
Half Moon Bay - for a great family day out (it often has great waves for messing about in with a lilo!)
Shirley Heights on a Sunday evening - for great music, views of English Harbour and a barbeque
English Harbour and Nelson's Dockyard - for an interesting historic site dating back to colonnial times
Antigua isn't a big island so you can't get lost. Just head out and find a deserted beach for a picnic.
