Prickly Pear Island, Antigua, has 12 residents, all of whom were born on the island.

Despite the name, prickly pears are not the island's only source of wealth. Tourism contributes substantially to the island's income.

Despite the above description - the prickly pear Island, which is just off the Northern coast of Antigua, is uninhabited. It is run by Miguel and his family as an island where you can take a day trip out - have a simple buffet meal with local foods, help yourself to drinks, and enjoy the sun.

Anyone with a boat can visit the island - but obviously the amenities are for "paying" guests. Great snorkelling in the shallow waters inside the reef, and a rocky side facing out into the ocean. There is a website - [1]
