Antigua Island Travel guide, Caribbean. Tourism Information. Antigua's beguiling beauty starts to seduce the moment you arrive. Once capital of Guatemala, its streetscapes of pastel facades unfold beneath the gaze of three volcanoes, and beautifully restored colonial buildings sit next to picturesque ruins in park-like surroundings.

Outside the city, Maya communities, coffee plantations and volcanoes offer ample opportunities for exploration.
