About the map

Antigua and Barbuda World Map
Antigua and Barbuda on a World Map

Antigua and Barbuda is a country located in the Caribbean Sea. As the name implies, it consists of two main islands. Antigua is the main island, situated in the south. It’s more developed and holds the capital and largest city of Saint John’s.

Whereas Barbuda is located in the north and is known for coral reefs and beaches. Antigua and Barbuda is close to Guadeloupe to the south, Montserrat to the southwest, and Saint Kitts and Nevis to the west.

In 1981, Antigua and Barbuda gained their independence from the British. But their official language is still English because of the British influence. While the vast majority of people live in Antigua, only 2,000 people live in Barbuda.
