A Tale of Two Islands BY : MICHAEL TREMBLAY
Even before we embarked on a tropical odyssey to Antigua and Barbuda , our considerable excitement was tempered by a touch of unfamiliarity . While we knew we could expect the warm sun , soft sands , and azure waters typical of every Caribbean haven , coming to terms with the true identity of the destination would have to come from our adventures on Antigua , the larger and more developed of the two islands , and our forays to Barbuda , its wilder , sparsely inhabited neighbor .
What we found in Antigua and Barbuda was not one exceptional island , but two : each distinct in character but so alike in their magnetic charm and breadth of profoundly memorable experiences . At once both rustic and lavish , adventurous and tranquil , the eclectic range of the attractions , accommodations , and excursions available in Antigua and Barbuda stands out as this perfect pair ’ s greatest virtue . Offering something for travelers of all ages and inclinations , Antigua and Barbuda is a dynamic paradise with a novel allure that defies our endeavors to summarize and chronicle it , despite our best efforts to do so for you below .
