Antigua and Barbuda is a nation composed of islands located between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to the two major inhabited islands, Antigua and Barbuda, it includes a number of smaller islands (Great Bird, Green, Guinea, Long, Maiden and York Islands). These are low lying islands with some volcanic areas at a higher elevation. The overall population is approximately 88,000 people.
Antigua and Barbuda became an independent state of the British Commonwealth of Nations on November 1, 1981. The British Empire strongly influenced the nation’s governance, language, and culture. The government is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of government.
The economy mainly depends upon tourism. Antigua and Barbuda attract tourists with the dry tropical climate, white sand beaches and crystal blue waters. The US dollar is widely accepted in this nation.

Avoid showing signs of affluence, such as expensive jewelry and clothing, and ensure your personal belongings and travel documents are safe at all times.
