Sight Seeing

Also it is now a very active harbour and centre for Caribbean sailing. Betty’s Hope is about 15 minutes drive, and this gives a perspective of colonial life during the 17th and 18th centuries when Antigua was under colonial rule. The capital, St. Johns is about a 30-40 minute drive away, where more museums, shopping and other activities are available.
