Antigua (/ænˈtiːɡə/ an-TEE-gə atau kadang diucapkan /ænˈtiːɡwə/),^[1] dikenal juga dengan sebutan Wadadli,^{[oleh siapa?]} adalah sebuah pulau di Hindia Barat, di Kepulauan Leeward di Karibia, pulau utama negara Antigua dan Barbuda. Antigua berarti "kuno" dalam bahasa Spanyol dan nama yang diberikan oleh Christopher Columbus ini berasal dari nama tokoh Katedral Sevilla, Santa Maria de la Antigua.^[2] Nama Waladli^[3] berasal dari penduduk pribumi Indian dan kira-kira bermakna "milik kami".^{[butuh rujukan]} Keliling pulau ini sekitar 87 km (54 mi) dan luasnya mencapai 281 km² (108 sq mi). Jumlah penduduknya sebanyak 80.161 jiwa per sensus tahun 2011.^[4] Ekonominya bergantung pada pariwisata, dan sektor pertaniannya memenuhi kebutuhan dalam negeri.

Lebih dari 31.000 orang tinggal di ibu kota St. John's (17°6′N 61°45′W / 17.100°N 61.750°W / 17.100; -61.750). St. John's terletak di barat laut pulau dan memiliki pelabuhan dalam yang bisa dilayari kapal pesiar raksasa. Permukiman besar lainnya adalah All Saints (3.412 jiwa) dan Liberta (2.239 jiwa) menurut sensus 2001.

English Harbour di pesisir tenggara terkenal sebagai tempat yang terlindung dari badai. Di sana terdapat bekas stasiun angkatan laut kolonial Britania Raya bernama "Nelson's Dockyard" yang namanya diambil dari Kapten Horatio Nelson. Kini, English Harbour dan desa Falmouth dikenal sebagai destinasi berlayar dan pusat teknologi. Di perhelatan Antigua Sailing Week pada akhir April dan awal Mei, kapal layar dan pelaut dari seluruh dunia datang ke Antigua untuk berlayar.
