St John's, Antigua and Barbuda

Peter the Great styled this to be his Venice of the North.
Italian architects created baroque facades, the match of any, to line the banks of the Neva River. Long, arched bridges join the city's halves. World-reknowned for its crystal-clear water and 365 beaches--one for every day of the year--Antiqua is perfect for sunning, snorkeling or swimming. For a taste of the island's rich nautical history, visit Nelson's Dockyard, where ships were hauled for cleaning, and now a popular meeting place for the yachting set. Today the warehouses are filled with shops and restaurants, and the sails belong to international yachts. From this bustling little port, tour across the rolling countryside to Shirley Heights, a fortress dominating the entry to English Harbor.
