Johnson's Point

Travel Guide
Antigua featuring a beach, general coastal views and tropical scenes
Pamper yourself at a deluxe villa or beachside cottage in this cozy town overlooking Picarts Bay. Find gorgeous beaches and tasty local foods.

Johnson’s Point is a town in Saint Mary Parish on Antigua’s southwestern coast. Perched on the edge of one of the island’s finest beaches, Johnson’s Point has plenty of sun and sand. Stroll along the extensive stretch of beach or swim in the Caribbean Sea. Beachside bars and restaurants offer tasty seafood dishes and cold drinks. The reefs and coral gardens of Picarts Bay await your discovery. Don your mask and snorkel or sign up for a sightseeing boat trip.

The town’s crowning feature is beautiful Turner’s Beach, with sheltered waters and soft golden sands. Find a secluded section or join the action at the beachside bar. Stroll north where another section of umbrella-studded beach is bordered by two waterfront restaurants. Glide across the clear waters with your snorkel and mask to peer into the coral gardens offshore. If you’d like to find out about Antigua’s best dive spots, book a lesson at the Antigua Scuba School in the neighboring village of Urlings. Farther east, find the breathtaking Carlisle Beach. Backed by lush forest, this beach is the perfect spot to set sail on a boat trip.

Climb up the point on the southern end of the beach and look out across the captivating Caribbean waters. Return in the evening with a picnic to enjoy dinner at this fantastic sunset-viewing spot.

The town has a wide selection of resorts, villas and cottages. Indulge at an upscale resort and be pampered with spa treatments and guided sightseeing tours. Enjoy your vacation at your own pace at one of the waterfront cottages. Some Johnson’s Point accommodations have direct access to the beach, as well as equipment rental for watersports and snorkeling.

Johnson’s Point is located on Antigua’s southwestern coast. It is a 40-minute drive from the V.C. Bird International Airport at the northern part of the island. Access the town easily via the main coastal road. Enjoy this great addition to a road trip along the scenic coastline.

"The property itself is quite unique! The staff is amazing. The food was good; however, I wish they offered a variety of fresh, green vegetables with lunch and dinner. Most dishes came with a variety of starches only."
