Betty’s Hope
Founded over 300 years ago, Betty’s Hope was one of many slave-run sugar plantations operating on Antigua. Although not much is left of the former buildings, visitors can follow a trail system to view the ruins of each of the buildings where the sugar cane was stored, processed and turned into sugar crystals or rum.
Twin windmills used to crush the sugar cane have been restored to working order, giving the site a picturesque quality and allowing for a rare glimpse into the plantation’s past. A visitor’s center and museum give further insight into the history and workings of the plantation, with photos, maps and artifacts from the early days of its operations on display.
