A tiny island in the Eastern Caribbean, Anguilla promises secluded coves, pristine beaches, and peaceful surroundings.
With some of the most beautiful beaches in the region, Anguilla is a well-kept secret in the Caribbean, known for its unspoiled tropical landscape, high-end luxury hotels, and laid-back culture. Away from the crowds, a luxury Anguilla holiday could see you staying in a private villa on the beach, eating fresh lobster cooked on an authentic beach barbecue or snorkelling on one of the island’s spectacular coral reefs, spotting a variety of tropical fish and reef sharks. Despite its small size, the island boasts 33 beaches, characterised by their coral-white sands and crystal-clear turquoise seas, including Shoal Bay East, Rendezvous Bay Beach, and Meads Bay Pond.
Anguilla is known for its thriving culinary scene; you can dine anywhere from upmarket fine dining restaurants to aromatic street-food shacks, sampling Caribbean fusion delicacies and fresh seafood dishes. Activities range from watersports to golf, with those looking to explore having the option to visit Prickly Pear Cays by private yacht, particularly romantic if you’re on a honeymoon in Anguilla. It is also possible to visit the neighbouring island of St. Martin on your Anguilla holiday, only a short distance away by ferry.
The best time to visit Anguilla is between the drier months of December to May, when you can expect warm, sunny days. There is a higher chance of tropical storms between June to November, which is the island’s official hurricane season.
