About Antigua & Barbuda
The tropical islands of Antigua and Barbuda are located in the heart of the Caribbean about a thousand miles to the east of Jamaica and half that distance from Trinidad on the coast of South America. Boggy Peak, the highest point of Antigua is 1,319 ft in the south-west but the limestone Highlands of Barbuda rise to only 125 ft Antigua has a land size of 108 square miles, while Barbuda has a land area of 62 square miles. The former has a population of around 80,000 people, whereas the latter has only about 1,300 people.
When the world’s sea levels rose dramatically around 10,000 BC Barbuda became separated from Antigua by around 28 miles Parts of Barbuda have been geologically flooded, forming intriguing lagoons The world’s largest breeding and nesting colony of Magnificent Frigate Birds can be found here. Barbuda is home to a diverse range of native habitats, as yet unthreatened by development The reef-fringed island of Barbuda may be one of the West Indies best-kept ecological secrets Its rugged scenery gorgeous beaches lagoons and plentiful wildlife could be as valuable as its fisheries.
