VIDEO: The Joy of Jolly Beach, Antigua

By: - January 20th, 2018

Is it the most beautiful beach in Antigua?

It’s certainly the happiest.

This is Jolly Beach, home to the eponymous hotel (now with new management) and in the heart of Antigua’s most beautiful stretch of shoreline.

You need to visit to believe it.

And this is what it’s like to be there.
