Anguilla

The Caribbean islands are gifted with some of the most amazing beaches to laze around for days. The beautiful little island of Anguilla is also no different. Surrounded by lined up palm trees and turquoise ocean, it precisely mimics what comes to your mind when you imagine a Caribbean island. The white sand beaches of Anguilla are considered some of the best in the world. But you don’t have to limit yourself only to the beaches as the island offers you a great variety of other activities such as kayaking, snorkelling and scuba diving.

By now, you are probably thinking that the things we have mentioned are present in every island country, then what makes Anguilla so unique? Well, there is more! This British Overseas territory has a very rich history which can be dated back to the times when the natives (known as Arawaks) used rocks inside of caves as their canvas to showcase their creative skills! To know more about the history of the Arawaks, don’t miss the Heritage Collection Museum (which is the only museum on the island) in East End Village. Apart from exploring its fascinating history, you can indulge in other activities that are worth your time and effort. Going on a scenic drive is one of them. The flat surface of the island comes handy while driving. Some other activities worth mentioning are fishing, exploring art-galleries and hopping beach bars. 

So overall, Anguilla is definitely one of the most appealing islands of the Caribbean. With its world-class hotels and luxurious resorts, it attracts sunseekers and beach admirers from all around the world.

  16. The Valley – capital –
    • Although no part of Anguilla feels particularly urban, the Valley is home to the island’s government buildings, services such as banks, and most of its shops. 
    • The area was chosen as the colonial capital largely because of the abundance of arable soil – the island is mostly a limestone formation with only tiny pockets of viable land for farming.
    • St Gerard’s –
      • Built in 1966, St Gerard’s has a unique facade of pebbles, stones, timber and tiles, open-air side walls and a ceiling shaped like the hull of a ship.

  17. Shoal Bay East –
    • Idyllic Shoal Bay East – a shimmering, nearly deserted stretch of brilliant white sand strewn with tiny crushed shells
    • There’s a handful of small-scale resorts and villas as well as a string of laid-back beach bars along the sand, but it’s surprisingly quiet, even in high season.
    • Bring your snorkeling gear (or rent some on-site), as the glassy turquoise waters are perfect for underwater observation.
  18. Prickly Pear Cays –

    • The beach bars and restaurants here draw plenty of punters, especially on weekends, when live bands often play.
  22. Sandy Island –
    • Just 1.6 miles (2.5km) northwest of Sandy Ground, this tiny islet has a pure white-sand beach fringed by palm trees, translucent waters for snorkeling amid the turtle- and grouper-filled colored coral
