Fitches Creek is a stream of Antigua and Barbuda. It is located on the island of Antigua near the community of Fitches Creek. Although only a few kilometers long, it is one of the main rivers of the island.[1]
Fitches Creek drains from the area east of St. John's to North Sound, the Atlantic northeast coast of Antigua.[2]
It is formed from several ruts that come from the Potters Village and Piggotts, and from Sea View Farm in the Central Plain north of All Saints, and unites at Upper Lightfoot and Sugar Factory/Gunthorpes, just west of the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. Almost 2 kilometers further north, southeast of the village of Fitches Creek and west of the peninsula of Blackman's, the stream flows into the southern Fitches Creek Bay, an inner side bay of the North Sound.
