Construction at the Antigua Cruise Port has reached another phase, with developers confirming that the first concrete foundation for a planned Day Club pool has now been poured as work accelerates across the upland development site.

According to an update from Antigua Cruise Port, multiple buildings are also progressing, with exterior finishes taking shape as brightly coloured facades are added to the landscape. The design draws on Caribbean themes, including the installation of signature blue rooftops inspired by the surrounding sea.

Additional works are underway across retail spaces, where windows and doors are being fitted as part of preparations for new onshore visitor experiences tied to the port’s redevelopment.

The project, backed by Global Ports Holding, is part of a wider transformation of the St. John’s waterfront aimed at enhancing Antigua and Barbuda’s cruise tourism product.

Meanwhile, developers signalled that LICCOM will soon begin construction on an expanded parking facility. The new lot is expected to link Lower Church Street with Newgate Street, improving access and traffic flow in the capital.

The ongoing works form part of what stakeholders describe as the next phase of development at the port, with additional amenities and infrastructure continuing to take shape.
