Part of Antigua’s rise to “hotspot” status comes down to the sheer amount of available beaches. With soft white sand and palm trees galore, it\u2019s safe to say that the tropical climate is a tourist\u2019s paradise.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019d also be hard-pressed to find a crowded beach, as there are 365 of them in total. Finding a place to lie down is never difficult, which is great if you are after a nice, relaxing experience and is unusual for a beach getaway destination. As if that wasn\u2019t enough, the quality of the beaches in Antigua cannot be compared to anything else. You can expect turquoise seas and white sands, so it\u2019s no surprise that this is quickly becoming one of the top destinations in the world for travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Countless Things to Do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are countless things to do in Antigua. You\u2019re not limited to the beaches alone. There are many museums, UNESCO sites<\/a> and even historical places. You can also expect numerous water sports and land activities. With there being 3 different harbors, you have the chance to wander down and even go on a boat tour.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Several casinos operate down there too and many people consider this one way to add a touch of glamor to a vacation. Some games are easier than others to step into as a newcomer. For example it doesn’t take many people long to understand the key principles of roulette<\/a> and how each version of the game differs from the others. For example, even though American roulette and European roulette sound worlds apart, the only difference is that American roulette has two green zeros, and European roulette has one.  <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Other popular activities include taking advantage of the duty-free shopping areas or even going on a rainforest expedition. You can usually find a tour guide locally who is willing to show you around, which gives you the chance to go just about anywhere you want, without worrying about getting lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warm Weather<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you live in a country that experiences a lot of rainfall, traveling to Antigua gives you the chance to escape the doom and gloom. The tropical climate makes it one of the best destinations for those who want to have a break. The high season for Antigua runs from December to May. It rains very little during this time, and you can expect the temperatures to be consistent, too. Even during the rainy season, which spans between June and November, you can still expect temperatures to hover around 26\u00b0<\/a>. It might be a bit humid, but you can take advantage of way cheaper prices if you travel during this time.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Overall, Antigua is sparse when it comes to buildings. You can expect to see no skyscrapers and a lot of the resorts are surrounded by vegetation. There\u2019s a huge range of accommodation to choose from too, so it doesn\u2019t matter whether you want to stay in an apartment or a villa, because there\u2019s something for everyone and every budget. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Antigua being a fairly small island, it doesn\u2019t even matter where you stay. You can usually travel from the south side of the island to the north in just under 45 minutes if you have a rental car. Renting a car is also very easy to do on the island, with numerous establishments offering different types of vehicles to suit every traveler. Although you may be tempted to bring your own car, it\u2019s probably not a good idea. The roads aren\u2019t in the best condition, so you may find that you end up damaging your own. Rental cars in the country however tend to be well-suited to the uneven roads, with good suspension and fuel economy. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When you break down all the benefits, it\u2019s not hard to see why Antigua is such a hotspot for tourists who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. With so much to offer, it is a prime holiday destination.<\/p>
