Antigua is an island in the West Indies in the Caribbean region and it is the main island of the country of Antigua and Barbuda. Antigua means "ancient" in Spanish and was named by Christopher Columbus. In 1784 Admiral Horatio Nelson sailed to Antigua where he found warm, steady winds, a coastline of safe harbours, and a protective coral reef: the perfect environment to establish Great Britain's most important Caribbean base. Over 200 years later the same characteristics that attracted the Royal Navy have transformed Antigua in one of the Caribbean's premier tourist destinations.

Great Harbour is one of three bays for sailors on the island of Jost Van Dyke, British Virgin Islands. At the beginning of the 18th century, the island was inhabited by Quakers. Nowadays, picturesque little houses can be seen along the beach.

Located on the south end of the St. Kitts island, this beautiful beach offers many different activities for all types. There are many good sun-bathing and swimming opportunities.
