Saint George Parish in Antigua and Barbuda is a fascinating blend of history, prosperity, and natural beauty. As the newest parish, established in 1725, it has grown into one of the most affluent areas in the country. Home to **V.C. Bird International Airport**, the **Sir Vivian Richards Stadium**, and several universities, Saint George is a hub of modern infrastructure and economic activity.

Despite its focus on development, the parish still boasts scenic landscapes, from **dense forests in the northwest** to **marshlands near Fitches Creek**. While it may not be a top tourist destination, its significance as the gateway to Antigua and Barbuda makes it an essential part of the island’s charm. Whether you're passing through or exploring its unique neighborhoods, Saint George offers a glimpse into the dynamic heart of Antigua.
