TRAVEL AND WEDDING LINKS TO THE CARRIBEAN:
ANTIGUA...
Antigua and Barbuda are located in the middle of the Leeward Islands in the Eastern Caribbean,
roughly 17 degrees north of the equator. To the south are the islands of Montserrat
Guadeloupe,to the north and west are Nevis, St. Kitts, St. Bart's, and St. Martin.
Antigua, the largest of the English-speaking Leeward Islands, is about 14 miles long and 11 miles
wide, encompassing 108 square miles. Its highest point is Boggy Peak (1319 ft.), located in the
southwestern corner of the island. Barbuda, a flat coral island with an area of only
68 square miles, lies approximately 30 miles due north. The nation also includes the
tiny (0.6 square mile) uninhabited island of Redonda, now a nature preserve.
The current population for the nation is approximately 68,000 and its capital is St. John's on Antigua.
Climate:
Temperatures generally range from the mid-seventies in the winter to the mid-eighties in the summer.
Annual rainfall averages only 45 inches, making it the sunniest of the Eastern Caribbean Islands and the northeast
trade winds are nearly constant, flagging only in September. Low humidity year-round.
Independent since 1981, Antigua and Barbuda (Antigua 's sister island to the north) have between them about
170 square miles and 66,000 inhabitants.
The chief industry is tourism, which has replaced the production of sugar in the top spot
(though sugar production continues).
There is no extreme rainy season, and temperatures hover around the 80s most of the year.
What it does have is magnificent beaches (reputedly, 365 of them), and
excellent, quality hotels located directly on those beaches, as well as a great deal of sailing activity from its
well-maintained marinas and yacht slips.
