The Barbudans are an ethnic group native to the island of Barbuda in the eastern Caribbean, primarily of Fante and other Coromantee ancestry.

The Barbudans make up the majority of the African descendant population in Barbuda, and are also located in various other English-speaking developed countries.

Except for a brief period in the 1780s, families were rarely broken apart, and were never involved in sugar production due to the island's dry climate.

Shellfish, mostly lobster, crab, and conch is also eaten, along with barracuda, dolphin, lamb, goat, and beef.

[9] The act states that anyone with a Barbudan parent or grandparent, regardless of citizenship or residence, may be granted right of occupancy to a portion of Barbuda's land free of charge.
