Antigua & Barbuda
Urlings Annual Seafood Festival
August 13, 2017
With the twin-islands of Antigua and Barbuda
nestling in the waters of the Atlantic and
Caribbean Seas, it is no wonder that seafood
dishes seem to be a typical sight in many
restaurants and food stalls in the country. These
islands are blessed with many seafood choices,
therefore, having an annual seafood festival
seems the most perfect choice.
The annual seafood festival is highly anticipated
and definitely not to be missed, especially for
the sea-food lovers - there’s no such thing as
seafood constraint during this widely-acclaimed
celebration held at Urlings Village, St. Mary’s.
The festival started in 2009 and since then
has grown into a remarkable event, with craft
booths, art displays and musical concerts. In
addition to the mouthwatering cuisine, there
are water rides, fishing competitions and even
mango eating battles too!
So, if you’ve been on the hunt for unlimited
seafood treats of fish, lobster, crab, conch, and
other local seafood delicacies, don’t look any
further because Antigua and Barbuda is waiting
for you. You can satisfy your seafood cravings
while enjoying the festival with your family and
friends in a breathtakingly beautiful Caribbean
setting.
