Antigua and Barbuda

 

 

The island has a population of about 68,000 and is 54 miles in circumference, with an area of 108 square miles.

Over 31,000 people live in the capital of St. John's. Other leading population settlements are All Saints (3,412) and Liberta (2,239), according to the 2001 Census. The capital is situated in the northwest, near to V.C. Bird International Airport, and has a deep harbour which is able to accommodate large cruise ships.

English Harbour on the southeastern coast is famed as a "hurricane hole" (protected shelter during violent storms) and the site of a restored British colonial naval station. The latter is called "Nelson's Dockyard".  Today English Harbour and the neighbouring village of Falmouth are an internationally famous yachting and sailing destination and provisioning centre. At the end of April and beginning of May Antigua Sailing Week, an annual world-class regatta started in 1967, brings many sailing vessels and sailors to the island to race and party.
