Fodor's Review:
Just outside the village of Pares, a marked dirt road leads to Antigua's first sugar plantation, founded in 1650. You can tour the twin windmills, various ruins, still-functional crushing machinery, and the visitor center's exhibits on the island's sugar era. The private trust overseeing the restoration has yet to realize its ambitious, environmentally aware plans to replant indigenous crops destroyed by the extensive sugarcane plantings.
