The route continues to Shirley Heights Lookout at Antigua’s southern tip, where visitors can view English Harbour from a historic military site dating back to the 1600s. After that, the tour visits Nelson’s Dockyard, the largest national park on the island, featuring 18th- and 19th-century buildings currently used as a marina with shops and hotels.
