About shipping to English Harbour

The island's historic and expat heart

English Harbour, on the south-east coast in the parish of Saint Paul, is the most famous corner of Antigua. It's home to Nelson's Dockyard, the restored Georgian naval base that's now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and to one of the island's largest expat communities: British and North American retirees, yacht owners and crew, and a lively winter social scene around the marina. With Falmouth Harbour next door, it's the centre of island sailing.

Because so many people here are relocating or setting up a home rather than sending the odd barrel, most moves to English Harbour are full households and furniture. We connect you with one vetted partner who packs and protects everything in the UK, ships it, clears it and reassembles it at your new home near the harbour.

🔨 Furniture and full home moves

Built for relocations and second homes

Setting up a home by the harbour usually means shipping furniture, and that's where the handling matters. Your vetted partner export-packs each piece, builds made-to-measure crates for fragile, heavy or high-value items, and dismantles and reassembles beds, wardrobes and large tables. For a full relocation, a shared or full container carries the lot. A local broker clears it at Deep Water Harbour, with returning nationals bringing used effects in free of duty and ABST, and others budgeting for duty and 15% ABST. Your partner manages the run from the city across to the south-east.

📍 Delivery to English Harbour and Falmouth

Getting to the south-east coast

From Deep Water Harbour in St John's, your goods travel about thirteen miles across the island to English Harbour, Falmouth and the surrounding hillsides, on roads that wind down to the coast.
