Antigua & Barbuda

First things first, did you know that Antigua and Barbuda is actually made up of three (3) islands, and not just two? — Antigua, Barbuda, and Redonda.

Antigua is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean, over 365 beaches to be exact — one for every day of the year. Barbuda, which is known for its crystal-clear waters and incredible diving opportunities. And finally, there's Redonda, a tiny island that has been uninhabited since 1877.

The most exciting thing about Antigua and Barbuda isn't its geography; it's the fact that you can visit Mt. Obama—a mountain named after former president Barack Obama—and take in some breathtaking views of this tropical paradise. If that isn't enough, there's also Princess Diana Beach on Antigua (named in honor of Princess Diana’s visit to the beach shortly before her tragic passing).
