Every Easter weekend, Antiguans take to the beaches and open fields to fly kites — a beloved island tradition that fills the sky with hundreds of handmade and decorated kites of every colour. The beaches around Dickenson Bay, Jabberwock, and Pigeon Point become festival grounds with music, food stalls, and family gatherings. Kite-making is a pre-Easter ritual in many households, and the quality and creativity of the designs is impressive. A joyful, deeply local tradition that visitors rarely know about.
