Nelson's Dockyard sits in English Harbour adjacent to Falmouth, with 90 superyacht berths in the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Georgian-era Royal Navy dockyard — the only continuously-operating Georgian dockyard in the world, built between 1745 and the 1850s as the principal Royal Navy base in the eastern Caribbean. Admiral Horatio Nelson commanded HMS Boreas from this dockyard 1784-1787. The marina is unique in global yachting — historic Royal Navy architecture, restored Georgian buildings (the Copper and Lumber Store, the Officers' Quarters), the working naval port heritage preserved alongside the modern megayacht infrastructure.
The pantry is shared with Falmouth Harbour — Antigua Black pineapple, fungee and pepperpot, goat water, ducana, saltfish, Caribbean spiny lobster, conch, reef fish. English Harbour Rum (named after the harbour, the local Antiguan flagship rum) at source-direct prices. Cavalier Rum and Wadadli beer. Premium international air-freight via V.C. Bird International Airport. The restaurant economy within the dockyard (Admiral's Inn, Copper and Lumber Store dining, Pillars) maintains restaurant-grade catering. Specialty providers handle full superyacht protocols (HACCP, kosher Miami-staged, halal, allergen-segregated) with the discreet logistics that the UNESCO setting requires.
Yachting season runs December through April with sharp peaks during the Antigua Charter Yacht Show, Christmas-New Year week and Antigua Sailing Week. Nelson's Dockyard suppliers handle same-day on fresh items and 24 to 48 hours on full provisioning, with tender delivery to anchorages around English Harbour (Galleon Beach, Pigeon Beach) and the south coast.
Active December to April. The world's only continuously-operating Georgian dockyard, UNESCO World Heritage-listed.
