In Antigua there are so many private beaches accessible only by boat, you could visit one every day of your honeymoon and still have hundreds left on your list for next time. With some of the best steel bands in the Caribbean, get your rhythm going in the club and make your own music back at the resort. After all, most guys who are good dancers know how to put those skills to work elsewhere. Antigua nightlife revolves around the hotels with a reliable club scene for late night dancing.
