14 Antigua is the largest of the British Leeward Islands at about 14 miles long and 11 miles wide. The expansive, winding coastline that made it difficult for outsiders to navigate is where today's trekkers encounter a tremendous wealth of secluded, powdery soft beaches. The coral reefs, once the bane of marauding enemy ships, now attract snorkellers and scuba divers from all over the world. And the fascinating little island of Barbuda - once a scavenger's paradise because so many ships wrecked on its reefs - is now home to one of the region's most significant bird sanctuaries. Temperatures are usually warm in Antigua with daytime readings ranging between 25 - 30oC. It's low rainfall and constant easterly breezes create one of the most pleasant climates in the West Indies. Antigua offers a variety of shops and boutiques for the vacationing shopper looking for that extra- special Caribbean gift or souvenir. Whether it's crafts, jewellery or duty- free bargains, visit Antigua's shops to find your own Caribbean treasure. Antigua Galley Bay Resort & SpaVerandah Resort & Spa
