Dickenson Bay (Dickenson Beach) is a very popular spot for vacationers as it is a superb family-friendly beach with great facilities, such as some of the best all-inclusive resorts and restaurants and a floating tiki bar. It is a popular spot for cruise ship passengers so it is probably one of the few beaches to get 'busy'.

Jolly Harbour gave a big boom to Antigua tourism reclaiming swamp land in the community just outside of its neighbouring Bolans village. It was designed as the only gated community and marina in Antigua. It is now a major tourism hub and sailing destination for the island. The services to the marine community form an almost siloed revenue next to the tourism boost from holiday homes and travel-related services within.
Despite its start on swampland, it's still developing and so are businesses in the area and indeed JH.

Located in the English Harbour general area is the historic harbour bearing one of the most famous names in naval history; Nelsons Dockyard. Nelson managed the defensive harbour for a while and Nelson's Dockyard is what you can visit today to get a flavour of life in another time in Antigua. His quarters are now a very nice museum and that is a must see if you visit the dockyard so give yourself at least an hour in the museum alone. Reading about the history here will give you a much better feel for it, while wandering around the beautiful setting.
