Antigua boasts 365 beaches - one for every day of the year - and Dickenson Bay is among the most famous. Located on the northwest coast of the island, this crescent of soft white sand and turquoise water is one of the calmest and safest swimming beaches on the island, protected by an offshore reef that keeps the surf gentle year-round.
Dickenson Bay is home to a lively selection of beachfront restaurants, watersports vendors, and hotels of every category. Visitors can enjoy sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, water skiing, kayaking, and jet skiing all along the bay, and the area is popular with families and couples alike.
Antigua's warm climate, English-speaking population, and reliable trade winds make it a favorite year-round destination. The capital, St. John's, is a short drive from Dickenson Bay and offers duty-free shopping, historic sites and the departure point for excursions to sister-island Barbuda.
Beach: Dickenson Bay stretches roughly one mile along the north-west shore, with fine white sand that shelves gently into calm, warm water. Non-motorised watersports and beach amenities are readily available at most beachfront properties. |
