Set against a backdrop of cliffs with great views from up top. Good snorkelling and swimming beach, and gateway to Little Bay. Also home of Roy’s Place beach bar.
A tiny desert island a couple of miles offshore to the north of Anguilla, with just a few palms and a beach bar serving BBQ lunch, a great spot to chill out and snorkel. Occasional live music on Sunday afternoons. Free boat service from Sandy Ground Bar, closed Saturdays and mid August for one month.
Small cay located in Island Harbour, reached by the free boat service which picks guests up for the short journey – just wave from the pier or one of the many boat trips. Great for a day’s swimming, snorkelling and grilled lobster or crayfish lunch. Live music on Wednesday and Sunday afternoons. Closed Mondays and Sep-Oct.

A harbour and beach community set in a huge protected bay with fishing boats and other craft and a long stretch of straight beach and a number of bars and restaurants. Epicentre of Anguilla’s nightlife. The salt pond that backs the bay was commercially harvested until the mid 1980s.
Anguilla’s most famous and popular beach. Startling white, powder soft sand that stretches for miles. There is a string of beach bars, some smallish resorts, glass bottom boat trips, snorkelling (‘shoal’ means reef and this is some of the island’s best snorkelling) and places to rent sun shades and loungers from which to enjoy the closest Anguilla has to a beach scene. Things heat up on Sunday afternoons when bars have live music and attract a crowd. The more sheltered Lower Shoal Bay has calm water that gently slope from the beach.
A lively hotel set on a superb stretch of sand on Rendezvous Bay on Anguilla’s southern shore. Its architectural inspiration from Mykonos, so its stark white buildings are flashed with diamonds and domes rich blue. Upbeat atmosphere, with an excellent, full service spa and a hydroponic garden.
A beautiful arc of powder soft sand with calm and clear water, the longest beach in Anguilla. There are splendid views across to the hills of St Martin. A number of hotels, villas, restaurants and bars are located here.
A magnificent curve of beach, home to Cap Juluca, whose white domes stand stark against the tropical blue sky. You cannot access the beach without going through the resort. Excellent white sand and superb swimming.
A much quieter beach than its easterly namesake, but equally beautiful with a perfect crescent shaped bay, fine white sand with sometimes exposed rock, good swimming, and views to St Martin. There is a beach restaurant and two of Anguilla’s architecturally striking resorts are located here.
