Antigua
Barbuda's island partner
Antigua is an island in the Caribbean, part of the nation Antigua and Barbuda in the Lesser Antilles.
Known for its beaches and British colonial history, it serves as a popular tourist destination and cruise ship port.
The island's name, Spanish for "ancient," references a church in Seville.
We spent a week in Antigua during our Caribbean cruise.
Antigua also refers to a historic city in Guatemala, formally called Antigua Guatemala, known for its well-preserved Spanish colonial architecture.
