Antigua’s Donkey Sanctuary

Antigua and Barbuda Humane Society Making a Difference

The Antigua & Barbuda Humane Society operates Antigua’s Donkey Sanctuary which currently shelters more than 150 donkeys. Although all stallions are castrated on arrival, more often than not, the mares are already in foal when they arrive. As the gestation period is almost a year, there are frequently sweet surprises in store.

The Donkey Sanctuary is open from Tuesday to Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm (also on most holidays) and closed on Sundays. We also have a shelter for dogs and a cattery. Visitors enjoy brushing the donkeys and interacting with the dogs and cats. Restrooms and cold drinks are available.

Admission is FREE.
