Know before you go!

💵 Currency and Exchange

The official currency of Antigua and Barbuda is the Eastern Caribbean dollar (XCD). The exchange rate is relatively stable, approximately 2.7 EC$ to 1 US$. US dollars are widely accepted across the islands, and credit cards are also commonly used in hotels, restaurants, and larger stores. However, it's advisable to carry some local currency for smaller establishments and markets. 

***If you are using US dollars, THEY MUST NOT HAVE ANY TEARS. The local people are unable to exchange the bills if they have any tear at all. 

☀️ Best Time to Visit and Weather

Antigua and Barbuda enjoy a tropical climate, with warm temperatures year-round. The average temperature ranges between 75°F (24°C) and 85°F (29°C). The islands have a wet season from June to November, coinciding with the Atlantic hurricane season, and a dry season from December to May. The best time to visit to ensure the best weather is  during the dry season, particularly between December and April. However, if you are looking to shave a little money, May can be a great option!
