Time Around the World Ahoy, there! and welcome to the Big Blue Schooner of schooonerbay.net. Come sail the net with us on our latest Caribbean voyage! Welcome Aboard!Antigua
Located in the northern Leeward Islands of the Caribbean east-southeast of Puerto Rico, Antigua has a deeply indented shoreline with many natural harbors. The island boasts 365 lovely beaches -- one for each day of the year -- as well as English Harbour, a superb restoration of the 18th-century dockyard that was home for Admiral Lord Nelson and the British Navy fleet. Antigua Sailing Week is one of the biggest events in the World Sailing calendar, as well as one of the most fantastic times to visit Antigua and take advantage of an island-wide party. The races are from Dickenson Bay, Falmouth Harbour and down the West Coast, and each evening there are parties wherever the yachts finish racing for the day.
Barbados
Barbados, in the Windward Islands, is the easternmost of the Caribbean islands. Although rainfall is generous from June to December, the island has no rivers and its water is pumped from subterranean caverns. The cultivation of sugarcane was historically the island's main occupation, but today tourism is the largest industry and one that Barbadians do well!
Puerto Rico
Discovered by Columbus in 1493 and colonized by the Spanish in the 16th century, this tiny island is indeed the jewel of the Caribbean. Puerto Rico is the smallest and easternmost of the Greater Antilles, just a thousand miles southeast of Miami. In the 17th century Spanish galleons ladened with treasure anchored in San Juan harbor on their homeward journey, catching the eye of many a roving buccaneer. To protect the harbor the Spanish built a series of impregnable fortresses whose walls still stand today.
