Green Island

Green Island is a small island of Antigua's eastern coast. It is a private island that the Mill Reef Club has owned since 1947. It is located near the mouth of Nonsuch Bay. Green Island is situated off Antigua's southeastern peninsula, at the southern entrance of Nonsuch Bay. Green Bay, a bay-like channel south of the island, in front of Cape Cork Point, Green Island is only around 350 meters distant from Antigua island. It is administratively part of the Saint Phillip Parish.

The island itself is about two kilometers long from west to east, with two south-facing peninsulas varying in width by a few hundred meters (maximum 650 m) and providing several sheltered coves. The island has a total size of around 40ha. A sea-side peninsula ends in the Man of War Point, which serves as Antigua's eastern extremity (as a region, the east point of the main island, the Neck of Land), from which the Atlantic Ocean extends about 4,000 kilometers to the approximate latitude of Cape Verde. The island rises barely a few meters above sea level and is made up of tropical brushwood, rock, and pure white beaches. Fronted by reefs and rocks on both sides, the northern reef blocks the entire Nonsuch Bay and continues all the way to Long Bay.
