If you have never been to Antigua then you are in for a real treat. Not only does it have fabulous beaches, apparently 365, one for each day of the year, but it also has a very interesting history. There are many signs all over the island where you can discover how such a small island in the middle of the Caribbean has developed over the ages and in fact its quite significant effect on the history, not only of the Caribbean but also to the rest of the world. I have put together some interesting facts which will, I hope, encourage you to take a more in depth look into this beautiful tropical island.

Nelson’s Dockyard in English Harbour
In 1889 Nelson’s dockyard was abandoned by the Royal Navy until 1961 when it was restored. Today you can visit a conglomeration of old stone warehouses, workshops and quarters filled with hotels, restaurants, souvenir shops and a museum. Around ten restored buildings are there, along with ruined forts and historical artifacts which still reflect its naval heritage. It retains its nautical charm with private yachts replacing Naval vessels in the harbour all year round. Thanks to its restoration it is now the only Georgian dockyard in the world and English Harbour is still a favourite port for those making the long Atlantic crossing.
English Harbour, Antigua’s graceful and evocative historic district, is focused on the fifteen square miles of Nelson’s Dockyard National Park. Developed as a base for the British Navy in the great age of sail, the harbour served as the headquarters of the fleet of the Leeward Islands during the turbulent years of the late 18th century.

Almost all of the park’s other sites of interest overlook the harbour. The closest of these is Clarence House, a residence built for the future King William IV (1765-1837) when he served under Nelson as captain of the H.M.S. Pegasus.

Clarence House
Clarence House can be found on a low hill overlooking Nelson’s Dockyard. It was originally built by English stonemasons to act as living quarters for Prince William Henry, later known as Duke of Clarence. The future king stayed at Clarence House when he was in command of the Pegasus in 1787. At present it’s the country home of the Governor of Antigua and Barbuda and is open to visitors when his Excellency is not in residence. A caretaker will show you on a little tour where you can see various pieces of furniture on loan from the National Trust. Princess Margaret and Lord Snowdon stayed here on their honeymoon.

Shirley Heights
This rambling array of gun emplacements and military buildings is best known today for its absolutely breathtaking view, reaching right out over English Harbour. On Sundays this amazing view is accompanied by barbecue, rum punch, and free afternoon/evening concerts by reggae or steel bands, popular with locals and visitors alike. The site is named after General Shirley, Governor of the Leeward Islands when the area was fortified in the late eighteenth century. Nearby is the cemetery, in which an obelisk stands, erected in honour of the soldiers of the 54th regiment.

Sea View Farm Village
Antiguan folk pottery dates back at least to the early 18th century, when slaves fashioned cooking vessels from local clay. Today, folk pottery is fashioned in a number of places around Antigua, but the centre of this cottage industry is Sea View Farm Village. The clay is collected from pits located nearby, and the wares are fired in an open fire, under layers of green grass, in the yards of the potters’ houses. Folk pottery can be purchased at outlets in the village as well as at a number of stores around the island. Buyers should be aware that Antiguan folk pottery breaks rather easily in cold environments.

Harmony Hall Art Gallery
Harmony Hall, in Brown’s Bay at Nonsuch Bay, is the centre of the Antiguan arts community, with exhibitions changing throughout the year. The annual highlights, both of which taken place in November, are the Craft Fair and the Antigua Artist’s Exhibition. Harmony Hall is built around a sugar mill tower. The tower itself has been converted to a bar and provides its patrons with one of the island’s best panoramic views, including a fine prospect of Nonsuch Bay.

St. John’s
St. John’s, the capital and largest city of Antigua and Barbuda. It is dominated by the magnificently evocative white baroque towers of St. John’s Cathedral. St John’s Cathedral, originally built in 1683, has been destroyed and rebuilt a number of times. The figures of St John the Baptist and St John the Divine were supposedly taken from one of Napoleon’s ships. Built in 1845, the church is now in its third re-generation, as earthquakes in 1683 and in 1745 destroyed the previous structures. For those visitors arriving in Antigua by boat each year, (approximately half of the islands visitors), their first sight are the towers of St. John’s Cathedral. St. John’s recently completed cruise ship dock and several hotels has added to this already lively hub for shopping and dining.

For those interested in finding out about the early history of the island, there is the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, housed in the colonial Court House (1750). The museum displays both Arawak and colonial artefacts recovered on archaeological digs on the islands. It also features a life-size replica of an Arawak house, models of sugar plantations and other exhibits.

Take time out either on Friday or Saturday morning and visit the vibrant farmers market on the southern edge of the city. At these markets be prepared to find folk crafts, colourful tropical fruits, and a buzzing crowd, everything you need to make it a lively and interesting Antiguan morning.

Museum of Antigua and Barbuda
This delightful museum tells the story of Antigua and Barbuda from its geological birth through the present day. A cool oasis in the middle of St. John’s, the museum contains a wide variety of fascinating objects and exhibits, ranging from a life-size replica of an Arawak dwelling to the bat of Viv Richards, one of the greatest cricket players of all time.

Betty’s Hope Sugar Plantation
In 1674 Sir Christopher Codrington was granted this estate by the English Crown. Arriving from Barbados, convinced that sugar would be the most important crop in the future, he named the estate after his daughter Betty, and his “hope” was that he had made the right decision. The success of Betty’s Hope, the first large sugar plantation on Antigua, led to the island’s rapid development of large-scale sugar production. Although the only surviving structures are two stone sugar mills and the remains of the stillhouse, the site’s importance in Antiguan history has prompted the government to begin developing it as an open air museum. You will find about a hundred stone windmill towers dotted all over the Antiguan landscape.

As other large plantations, Betty’s Hope was both an agricultural and industrial enterprise employing a large number of people. It was supervised by a handful of European managers. Hundreds and hundreds of African lived out their lives on plantations such as this, initially as slaves, then as labourers after emancipation in 1834. Steadfastly contending with the hardship of cultivating and processing the sugar, under exhausting conditions, they developed great skills as craftsmen, boilers and distillers. This gave Betty’s hope its reputation for excellence lasting to this very day.

Today Betty’s Hope has been restored. The cane crushing machinery is in working order with new wings and sails reconstructed to the original specifications. A former cotton house storeroom has been converted into a visitor centre/museum. It includes the various aspects of the plantations history showing early estate plans, pictures and maps, artefacts and a model of the central site giving an overview of ‘Betty’s Hope’. Other information such as how sugar and rum were produced long ago can also be found. The cost of admission is $2 US per person.

As you will see when you visit Betty’s Hope, the two restored examples, of these towers, provide a dramatic sense of the way these mills must have dominated the island during the hundreds of years when sugar production was the dominant industry.

Potworks Dam/Reservoir
Surrounded by an area of natural beauty, Potworks Dam holds the largest artificial lake on Antigua. The dam holds about one billion gallons of water and provides protection for Antigua in case of a drought. This expanse of freshwater is reputed to be the largest in the Eastern Caribbean. When full it is a mile long and half a mile wide. The western edge is great for bird-watching.

Indian Town
On the north-eastern point of Antigua there is a remote wild area known as Indian Town Point. As of yet the reason for its name is unknown and to date there have been no Indian archaeological remains found on this peninsula. In 1950 the area was legally constituted as a National Park. It is surrounded by numerous blowholes spouting surf, an absolutely amazing sight indeed. One local legend is that if you throw two eggs into the hole, the Devil will keep one and throw back the other. Indian Town is an environmentally protected area that lies at the tip of a deep cove, Indian Town Creek. The park fronts the Atlantic Ocean at Long Bay, just west of Indian Town Creek on the eastern side of Antigua. A large, grassy headland, around Devil’s Bridge, makes a great spot for a picnic.

Devils Bridge
Over the centuries, Atlantic Ocean breakers have lashed against the rocks and carved a natural bridge known as Devil’s Bridge. This name comes from an old myth foretelling of many mass suicides occurring among slaves in despair. At their very end they would go there and toss themselves over. There is an incredible example of sea-water erosion within the park. Geologically, Devil’s Bridge is a natural arch carved by the sea into the soft and hard limestone ledges of the Antigua formation - a geological division of the flat north-eastern part of Antigua. Devil’s Bridge has been created over countless centuries by the action of rough Atlantic Ocean breakers crashing continuously against the limestone shoreline and causing this erosion.

A 104 year old Antiguan patriot, Sammy Smith, had the answer. In a quote from his memoirs ‘To shoot Hard Labour’ he says:
“On the east coast of the island is the famous Devil’s Bridge. Devil’s Bridge was called so because a lot of slaves from the neighbouring estates use to go there and throw themselves overboard. That was an area of mass suicide, so people use to say the Devil has to be there. The waters around Devil’s Bridge are always rough and anyone fall over the bridge never come out alive”.

Devils Bridge is definitely worth a visit. It is surrounded by both the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. In fact you can easily see where they both meet and witness those deep swells and raging waters which crash continuously into Devils Bridge most of the year.

Many people visit this sight and some, those who are more daring, or really rather silly, actually try to walk across the bridge. It is not advisable to do this. Should you fall into the Ocean, it would be near impossible, as you can imagine, escaping the currents without serious injury. There are, of course, various stories of people who have fallen in and never escaped. Although many of these may be fictional, it is better to be safe rather than sorry!

Devils bridge area is mostly rock with some surrounding greenery and a small bay to one side. There is usually quite a strong breeze to keep you cool, but please be aware that this can make the strength of the sun deceiving. If you are patient you will be able to get some stunning photos of the waves splashing up against the bridge. This is definitely nature working its magic to create an incredibly exciting and beautiful landscape.

Fort James
Fort James was built in the first half of the 18th century. This picturesque bastion was intended to guard St. John’s harbour. Today the walls are still in excellent condition, and even a few of the cannons are still intact. However, the main attraction of Fort James today is the incredible views to be seen of the surrounding harbour. Nearby is Heritage Quay, comprising of a hotel, four duty-free shops, restaurants and a casino, all part of the newest development in downtown St John’s.

Dow’s Hill Interpretation Centre
Dow’s Hill Interpretation Centre is located just 2 ½ miles from the Dockyard. This centre is quite unique in the Caribbean. It uses multimedia presentations, covering six periods of the islands history, including the era of Amerindian hunters, the era of the British military, and the struggles connected with slavery. The centre is open daily from 9am to 5pm.

Fig Tree Drive
Fig Tree Drive is one of Antigua’s most picturesque drives. The road meanders from the low central plain of the island up into the ancient volcanic hills of the Parish of Saint Mary in the island’s southwest quarter. This none-too-smooth road passes through an area of lush vegetation and rainforest and rises to the steep farmlands around Fig Tree Hill (figs are what Antiguans call bananas) before descending to the coastline again. Along the way you will pass banana, mango, and coconut groves, as well as a number of old sugar mills and pleasant little churches.

Green Castle Hill
The ‘megaliths’ that initially drew curious visitors to Green Castle Hill are almost certainly geologic features, but they are no less impressive and picturesque for being natural features. Apart from these impressive ‘megaliths’ Green Castle Hill also provides an excellent view of the island’s interior, including both the south-western volcanic mass (of which it is a part) and the interior plain. (Due south of St. John’s, btw. Jennings and Emanuel).

Great Bird Island
Take an excursion to Great Bird Island from Dickenson Bay. Glass-bottomed boats afford leisurely views of the reef, and a restored pirate ship sails around the island and takes passengers for day or evening trips, with food, drink and entertainment included.

Half Moon Bay/Long Bay
Half Moon Bay is a popular national park; it is 1.6km (1 mile) long and renowned as one of Antigua’s most beautiful beaches. Nearby Long Bay is protected by a reef, shallow enough to walk to, making it ideal for holidaying families.

Barbuda
Visit the less-developed Barbuda for its wild beauty, deserted beaches and heavily wooded interior abounding in wildlife. The main village, Codrington, sits on the edge of a lagoon and its inhabitants rely largely on the sea for their existence. The Frigate Bird Sanctuary, home to over 5,000 frigate birds, is also here.

Redonda
For even more solitude and greater eccentricity, stop over at Redonda, an uninhabited rocky islet, about 56km (35 miles) northeast of Antigua. The island is famous for its unusual monarchy and small population of burrowing owls, a bird now extinct on Antigua.

Traveling is a popular activity and hobby that many people enjoy throughout the year, as they are able to explore far-off lands or simply investigate the nooks and crannies of their own local backyard. To make the most out of any adventure on the road, sky, or water - it is important to conduct thorough research, properly prepare, and most of all - stay safe.

Travel Preparation

It doesn’t matter if you plan on leaving in the morning and returning at night or will soon discover other parts of the world on a weeklong tour - preparation is key. A great amount of people believe that preparing for travel is something that begins when you pack your suitcase, but true organization begins within the home. Before setting off, it is important to make sure your home appears lived-in. For example, you can leave a light on or set your radio on timers to lessen your risk of a burglary when you are away.

Make sure to cease any routine deliveries, as piled newspaper and mail are dead giveaways for an empty home. If you have any pets or plants - arrange for them to receive care. It is also a good idea to leave your keys and itinerary with a trusted friend or neighbor. Before leaving the home, double-check all windows, doors and the garage for secured locks.

Before leaving on a trip - travelers should sort out all appropriate paperwork and resources. This means organizing your guide books and maps, passport and visa(s), insurance, personal identification, and birth certificate. Currency and backup methods of payment are also become important on any trip. You will also need to store credit cards, travelers’ checks, ATM cards, and foreign currency (if necessary) in a safe, easy-to-find location.

When packing for a trip, begin by setting out the proper luggage in front of you. Lay out weather-appropriate clothing and comfortable footwear first. Next, pack clothing for warm weather, rain protection (if needed) and attire for nights out on the town. Other basic essentials include a travel alarm clock, small binoculars, address book, camera, and film (best stored in a carry-on bag). You may also want to add a few maintenance items at this point, including batteries for your camera, mini sewing kit, travel iron (or steamer), as well as laundry soap packets and laundry bag (if necessary).

Those who pack medical supplies are able to stay one step ahead of unforeseen circumstances when restaurant food doesn’t sit well or you’re planning a trek in the mountains. A few suggestions include a first aid kit, aspirin, diarrhea tablets, laxative, insect repellent, alcohol wipes, sunscreen, motion sickness remedy, and antibiotic ointment.

If you do not have a separate toiletry bag - you can store the following essentials in a sturdy Zip-loc bag: comb, brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, shampoo, deodorant, lotion, creams, and shaving cream. Many individuals will sometimes pack their own towel, washcloth, and all other toiletries even though hotels supply these items.

Popular Travel Destinations

When settling on a travel destination - the objective of your trip will play a significant role in selecting suitable locations to explore and the places you choose to visit will depend on your intentions. Are you planning a honeymoon? Is this a family outing? Do you want to enjoy a specific activity?

Are you interested in discovering a particular cultural icon (such as the Eiffel Tower, Broadway and Times Square, Grand Canyon, Egyptian Pyramids, Disneyland, or Hollywood)?

Popular destinations to keep in mind when experiencing what the world has to offer includes the beaches of Miami, the romantic allure of Hawaii, celebrity sightings of Los Angeles, wineries in Italy, the bright lights of New York City, and plenty of shopping opportunities in Chicago.

How to Stay Safe When Traveling

Staying safe while visiting other locales is one of the most important factors to consider when touring a new city or country. The best approach is to mask your identity as a tourist to lessen your chances of encountering any trouble. As a traveler, you should leave your valuables at home or locked away in a hotel safe. Wearing clothing that stands out could deliver unwanted attention as a tourist. In some locations, pickpockets and thieves are notorious for pinpointing out-of-towners. Stay alert when traveling by subway and visiting commonly frequented tourist sights.

Wherever you go, don’t forget to respect the locals and their culture. Before visiting another city or country, get a heads up on the local customs or laws. For instance, there are some countries that take offense to gestures thought friendly in North America, such as a ‘thumbs up.’ When it comes to money, it is recommended to carry small amounts of cash, use ATM machines in public places, and rely on travelers’ checks. Additionally, every location has areas that are not safe for visitors. As soon as you arrive at your intended destination, ask the hotel staff the ‘lowdown’ on the various sections of town.

The stereotypical image of Italian men; tall, dark and very, very handsome. Is this stereotypical image untrue, I ask myself? After spending 2 enchanting weeks holidaying in the ‘Eternal city’ of Rome, sightseeing with my friends, mingling with the local hotties, I have to say this stereotype is, in my experience, a definite 100%. Although many of them think they are God´s gift to women - for once, they’re right…

My two week holiday started when we arrived at the most amazing Rome apartment, close to the Piazza de Popolo. We were really geared up about the holiday and all the great must sees; The Vatican City, Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps but also and we couldn’t wait to get onto the fantastic Piazza Novona, packed with people in the restaurants, cafes and bars at night.

We immediately noticed how dark, strong and sensitive the men were, and so well dressed too! I had always been a fan of Italian footballers, especially Manuele Blasi, Fabio Cannavaro, Gennaro Gattuso, Andrea Pirlo and Gianluca Zambrotta, and in Rome I felt like I had a hundred Zambrotta´s all around me! Italian men seem to have a certain something about them, I’m not sure if it’s the way they speak English with an Italian accent when you ask them for directions, or the way they are so interesting to talk to, playful and funny.

We met a group of men in a bar, they were dressed very smartly. Some of the best bars I’ve ever been to were in Rome and I think we met these guys in “Anima” in the Historic Centre, they had been to a wedding that day, and looked positively dashing in their suits. Marco, Luca and Francesco were their names, it was hard getting this out of them, as they spoke hardly any English, and we spoke next to no Italian, apart from my friend Becca who is studying it at university. The guys were from Florence but were staying in a hotel in Rome near to the Piazza Novona and said they would show us round because they knew Rome quite well.

We spent the fifth day of our trip sightseeing together, they guys said they’d show us the attractions in Rome such as; Capitoline Museums at the Piazza del Campidoglio, Fontana Dell’acqua Paola and the Piazza Della Repubblica. We had a great day together. The guys were really sweet, opening doors for us, pulling out chairs, paying for lunch - certainly something you wouldn’t expect in England we laughed, - at home, a man´s idea of romance is normally more like ‘Fancy a pint luv?’

Towards the end of the trip there was a lot of romance in the air, I think it was not only how sweet the Italian boys were, but also just being in Rome itself. Although the city itself is loud and chaotic, (as is to be expected in ‘the city that never sleeps’), the pretty sidestreets, boutiques and cafes are filled with couples holding hands, children riding their bikes and old people sitting on the benches gossiping and watching the world go by.

Quite honestly, whilst I was sitting in a enchanting square in one of the most exciting cities in the world with my friends and 3 beautiful Italian men, I was completely content and couldn’t have imagined anything better than just being there and enjoying myself

Because of the rise in wellness tourism business owners on the Big Island of Hawaii have got together to promote a travel initiative that they collectively hope will prove so successful that it will eventually be adopted by the rest of the state.

The Hawaii Island Wellness Travel Association, composed of 120 business owners and holistic professionals, has set up a meeting with both the Big Island Visitors Bureau and Hawaii County officials to take the initiative further at which they hope to agree marketing strategies, develop effective packaging and adopt a set of rules for health and wellness travel to Hawaii, which they regard as a booming business.

As recently as 2005 almost $50,000 was set aside by Hawaii Tourism Authority to be used to quantify how well wellness tourism could be developed in the archipelago. A leading research company was approached to produce a comprehensive study of the health and wellness tourism market for the state of Hawaii. However, significant progress stalled once the report had been produced, and only now, some two years later, is the idea being re-launched.

One of the most vociferous proponents and advocates of wellness tourism Lew Whitney, co-founder of the Kokolulu Farm and Qigong Center based in North Kohala said: “We’ve been trying for years to persuade the Hawaii Tourism Authority that this (wellness) offers a great opportunity for the whole state of Hawaii and not just the Big Island.” Over the last nine years the Center has offered a range of cancer retreats and meditative healing programs and Whitney admits that it has been a struggle getting the message across to tourism chiefs. However, Whitney highlights that the Center, located on the northern tip of the Big Island, has been successfully trading for almost 10 years, and with little promotional help from the Hawaii Tourism Authority has managed to remain in business, albeit with the help of some charitable contributions.

Indeed, leading research group Mintel produced a comprehensive Market Research document which looked at wellness tourism being offered throughout the world in places as far flung as Japan, Hungary, India, Austria and Thailand. It concluded, amongst other things that markets were expanding as more and more people, of all ages, made their vacation choices based on health and wellness travel demonstrating that that the sector had a bright future.

As more people take to using alternative and natural remedies, tying wellness into hotel deals in Hawaii could herald a bold new initiative that in the long run may well add an extra string to the already well developed tourism bow for the state.
