2018 Antigua Charter Yacht Show Opens Today!

The 57th Antigua Charter Yacht Show opens today, taking place across Nelson's Dockyard Marina in English Harbour, the Falmouth Harbour Marina and the Antigua Yacht Club Marina both located in Falmouth Harbour.

Due to popular demand from charter brokers and yacht management companies, all registered yachts will remain on the dock throughout the show with the final "Sail Day" giving central agencies the opportunity to invite charter brokers aboard for a mini-cruise around Antigua's stunning coastline. 

Displaying many of the the finest yachts available in the Caribbean, a busy schedule of industry and social events awaits.
