Antigua or Barbados??

I was supposed to be going to Europe for a week, but at the moment they have more thunderstorms there at the moment than here in the UK.. So I am toying with the idea of trying out a new island.. I only ever goto to T&T so not sure if I should go to either Antigua or Barbados.. Look forward to some feedback..

Well, u could always do both. Barbados' cropover only has one parade day. U could do like alot of Antiguans even do and jump there on Monday and then hop over to Antigua and jump there on Tuesday.

But a Dominican friend of mine who has been to both says:

Barbados is bigger, more organized and closer resembles Trinidad.

Antigua is wilder, J'ouvert is better and two days of jamming.

So, u can try and make a decision off of that.
