Tips from locals
This place is a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE , and is the only working Original Georgian Dockyard in the world
Throughout the eighteenth century, Nelson's Dockyard named after Horatio Nelson was the only dockyard in Eastern Caribbean large enough for safe naval ship repairs. Fully restored to its original splendor, the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century buildings of the Dockyard house modern amenities such as shops, hotels, and marina businesses. Outside the dockyard, historic forts dot the landscape of the park accessible by hiking trails which allow visitors to enjoy the park’s scenic and natural beauty. The Nelson's Dockyard is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and also the home to the renowned Antigua Sailing Week and Superyacht Charter Show.
