About
Antigua’s fishing community lands mahi-mahi (dorado), wahoo, red snapper, and tuna year-round — sold at St. John’s fish market and served grilled or steamed at local restaurants. Fish cakes (small deep-fried balls of seasoned salt cod and herbs) are the island’s most popular snack, sold at roadside stalls from breakfast onwards. Look for the Saturday morning fish fry at various community beaches — a rotating local tradition that brings together great seafood, rum punch, and Caribbean music.
