Jolly Beach, White sand beach in Jolly Harbour, Antigua and Barbuda
Jolly Beach is a wide sand beach in Jolly Harbour with white sand and turquoise Caribbean waters. The shoreline slopes gently into the sea, providing ample space for swimming and relaxation.
The beach was developed in the 1980s from an empty coastline into a major tourist destination. This growth transformed it into one of Antigua's main vacation centers.
Local crafts and Caribbean dishes sold along the shore connect visitors directly to Antiguan traditions and daily island life.
The beach offers direct access to restaurants, water sports facilities, and accommodation options nearby. The international airport is about 16 kilometers away for convenience.
Reef formations close to shore create protected swimming zones where visitors can snorkel among tropical fish. This underwater area remains less crowded than other parts of the beach.
