Location:

Barracuda 8's superb location on Antigua’s southwest coast perfectly encapsulates all of the stunning natural beauty the island has to offer. With serene bays, verdant headlands, coral reefs and blue lagoons - not to mention the island’s 365 beaches, one for each day of the year - families and couples alike will be amazed by this Caribbean paradise.Antigua and Barbuda is a nation made up of two namesake sister islands, as well as several smaller islets. Antigua is the nation’s largest island at just 281 km². The fact that you can easily travel across Antigua by car makes it the perfect place for a relaxed Caribbean getaway. However, with the silky white sands of Ffryes Beach and Darkwood Beach located just below the villa, you may find yourself tempted to stay close to Tamarind Hills and its fabulous resort facilities, including a private beach club, indulgent spa treatments and an excellent restaurant. There are more restaurants to be found on Jolly Harbour Marina, situated just a five-minute drive away.For those who wish to discover more of the island, the Antiguan capital of St. John’s is easily accessible by car. This colourful Caribbean port is home to an impressive cathedral and lively markets by the harbour every weekend. For a chance to learn more about the nation’s fascinating history, you can also visit the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, located in the old colonial Court House. Another popular destination for locals and visitors alike is Nelson’s Dockyard National Park, one of five national parks in Antigua. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this eighteenth-century British naval dockyard is an area of great historical significance on the island, as well as a famous venue for maritime events and activities. Nelson's Dockyard offers visitors plenty of fantastic trekking trails, with breathtaking sights along the way.Consider visiting Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout with panoramic views, located within Nelson’s Dockyard. Shirley Heights is also the home of a well-established Sunday evening party, where visitors are invited to come and take part in the festivities. Listen to live Caribbean steel drum bands, try some of the local food and rum punch and take in another amazing sunset vista to remember.Devil’s Bridge is another national park that is well worth a visit. The bridge itself is a natural arch composed of limestone rock, formed over the course of many thousands of years. With geysers and blowholes surrounding the bridge as the waves of the Atlantic crash against the rocks, this is a bracing adventure that will leave you in awe of the serene beaches you have just left behind
