ANTIGUA CLASSIC YACHT REGATTA

One of the time-honored traditions of the Classic Yacht Regatta in Antigua is the Sail Past parade of yachts through the Antigua Slipway and past Nelson's Dockyard. This year the event will take place on Easter Sunday, April 20, starting at approximately 1:30 pm.

Those who would like to watch the colorful and interesting boats, many with crew decked out in costumes, should plan to have lunch or stop by the restaurants lining the area. These include Ristorante Paparazzi, The Custard Apple, HotHotHotSpot, The Copper & Lumber Store Restaurant, and Hamilton's Wine Bar & Bistro. Make your reservations early, because there is always a crowd.
