OUR BARBUDA GUIDE

TRAVELLING TO BARBUDA

BY BOAT There are charter companies based in Antigua who will take you on a private day trip from Antigua to Barbuda such as Barefoot Antigua who we previously travelled with. Then there is the Barbuda Express, the ferry which we took more recently, which runs to and from Jolly Harbour in the season for day tourists. www.barbudaexpress.com +1 (268) 764 2291. info@barbudaexpress.com

BY HELICOPTER Calvin Air does not only operate tours of Antigua, Barbuda and Montserrat, they also assist citizens when other options to transport medical emergencies are unavailable. They are not just a great company, with a philanthropic side. They are just about the most exciting way to travel to Barbuda and take in all of the incredible landscape (or should I say waterscape) from the sky. This is a popular service for visitors to Nobu and Barbuda Ocean Club. Contact them through their website for more information www.calvinair.com

There is no public transport on Barbuda and there are no taxi ranks either. So if you need a taxi to greet you on arrival, make sure you book one in advance.

BY PLANE A small 7 seater plane run by SVG Airlines, leaves twice daily from Antigua to Barbuda, departing once in the early morning, the other, late afternoon. The flight arrives and leaves from the small Codrington airport which is a short walk into the village. There is a very strict weight allowance policy, so if you are over-weight in person or in luggage you will be charged extra. We would recommend you double check your reservation a few days before the date you fly, just in case there are any time changes or cancellations.
