Falmouth Harbour
Take a stop in Falmouth and walk the docks to admire the mega yachts, check out the Antigua Yacht Club or pause and grab a bite for lunch. Past Falmouth the road ends abruptly at historic Nelson's Dockyard, which fringes English Harbour. This piece of living history is the world's only fully preserved Georgian Naval dockyard, dating back to the 18th century. Many buildings here are open to the public (self or guided tours) including two small inns, a museum, the Galley Bar and the Galley Boutique, restaurants, a tiny bakery (behind the museum), post office and more. Stop by the sail loft (A and F Sails) to peek at Franklin and his team of sailmakers at work. Nearby is the Antigua base for Sun Yacht Charters. You'll also happen upon more yacht related businesses catering to the boating community. Many yachts call these harbors home, but most are just passing through.
