"While visiting Nonsuch Bay in Antigua and Barbuda, it's important to respect the local customs and traditions. Dress modestly when you're not on the beach, as revealing clothing can be seen as disrespectful. Avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics and religion, as these can lead to heated debates. It's also considered rude to take photos of locals without their permission, so always ask first. When dining, remember that it's customary to use your right hand for eating and passing food, as the left hand is considered unclean. Don't be too loud or boisterous in public places, as this can be seen as disrespectful. Also, punctuality is not highly valued in Antigua and Barbuda, so don't be surprised if things don't start on time. Finally, remember to tip for good service, as it's customary in Antigua and Barbuda. However, check your bill first, as a service charge may already be included," remarked another expat who made the move to Nonsuch Bay, Antigua & Barbuda.
