Darkwood beach

Ultimate guide (August 2023)
Darkwood is a beach in the southwest of Antigua island. In the north end, there is a rocky bottom being great for snorkeling. If you move a little to the south, the bottom will become sandy. There are also few trees with good shade. In the south end, there is a great bar with rental of umbrellas and sunbeds. At the better times, this place was popular among cruise ship passengers. As for now, it is still very good here, but it's not so crowded like before. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
This beach ranks #9 of the "Best beaches in Antigua"
