Antigua eSIM — St John's, English Harbour and the beaches
A BellRoam Antigua and Barbuda eSIM gives you mobile data across Antigua without buying a SIM on arrival. Receive the QR code by email, install it before you fly and switch it on when you land in V. C. Bird Airport.
Network and coverage
| Network | FLOW |
| Strong coverage | St John's, English Harbour, Jolly Harbour, Dickenson Bay and the main roads |
| Weaker spots | Parts of Barbuda, some remote beaches on the east coast and boat trips offshore |
The network shown on each plan is the one your eSIM connects to.
Which plan should I choose?
- A beach week: maps, messaging, ride-hailing and social media fit in a small total-data plan.
- Two weeks including Barbuda: choose a mid-size plan if you navigate all day, upload photos or share a hotspot.
- Remote work or lots of video: pick the largest plan and use Wi-Fi for big downloads.

Tips for Antigua and Barbuda
- Resort Wi-Fi often stops at the lobby; data keeps maps and messaging working on excursions.
- Nelson's Dockyard and Shirley Heights are covered, so you can share sunset photos on the spot.
