Galleon Bay Beach, Beach area in English Harbour, Antigua and Barbuda
Galleon Bay Beach is a coastal area with fine white sand and turquoise Caribbean waters, characterized by wooden structures throughout. These buildings provide shelter and resting areas for visitors throughout the day.
This area was an important port for maritime activity, evidence of which remains in a large anchor on the shore. The proximity to Fort Berkeley from the 18th century highlights the former military importance of this region.
The beach serves as a gathering place where locals meet regularly and maintain Caribbean coastal traditions. These social connections shape daily life and show how central this location is to the community.
The beach is accessible from sunrise to sunset, with parking available near the entrance. The location between two hotels makes it easy to plan your visit.
A small shipwreck lies about 30 meters offshore, creating an underwater habitat where swimmers regularly encounter sea turtles and a resident stingray.
