Galleon Beach, English Harbour

Absolutely amazing beach , shallow calm water and a shipwreck with loads of fish swimming around it, saw a hawksbill few times also , probably my favourite beach. There are couple of hiking trails starting not far from this beach going to Shirley heights.. stunning views over Freeman's bay and English harbour.

In our short stay on Antigua we visited Galleon Beach twice: first - because we visited nearby English Harbor and wanted to go to a beach close to it, and second time - because we liked it so much and because we wanted to get to the Hercules Pillars. One note on the latter, btw - have a pair of good swimming shoes with you if you want to hike there (very doable). The beach bar on the Galleon Beach isn’t cheap (what is on Antigua?) but it worth it - food is good and cocktails are well made.
