A fantastic high level view from Shirley Heights in Antigua looking down on Galleon Beach and English Harbour (foreground) and Nelson's Dockyard (slightly to the right of centre). Shirley Heights offers breathtaking and far reaching views over English Harbour and Antigua. Also seen in the photograph is the remains of Fort Berkeley (jutting out into the water slightly right of centre) and Falmouth Harbour (the bay at the top).

History of Shirley Heights: This high ground was fortified in the late eighteenth century and the remains of old gun emplacements and military structures can be seen around the area. The heights were named after General Shirley who was the Governor of the Caribbean Leeward islands at the time of construction of the fortifications.
