Antigua in January

Spend January on an honest question: does the island suit a family with children? Antigua has 0 international schools, and Fuerteventura as a whole has none either. The hospital is 21 minutes away, and serious cases go to Las Palmas on the next island. For a retiree or a remote worker that is no obstacle; for a family with schoolchildren it is the whole question.

The winter column is a 1-to-5 score: how many cafés, hotels and shops run in January compared with the best month of the year. Where a village has no government figure of its own, it is our estimate. Tourists never notice; anyone who moved does.
Rain days and humidity are annual here, not monthly: 11 rainy days a year, 67% humidity in winter. We have no monthly normals yet and will not invent a split.
