"I must come back to Anguilla"
There are many people who have never been to Anguilla. There are very few people who
have been to Anguilla only once. Learn why one of its most popular songs is, "I must
come back to Anguilla."
Anguilla, BWI is an English independent territory in the northeast corner of the Caribbean.
Its greatest asset is its 11,000 industrious, conscientious, fun-loving, and welcoming
people. With tourism as their largest industry, Anguillians are committed to showing
you their beautiful island with pride and hospitality.
English is the official and spoken language. American currency is accepted everywhere,
and most establishments accept all major credit cards.
Spectacular Beaches, Glorious Weather
The
island is long and thin, creating an endless shoreline and over 30 of the world's most
beautiful beaches. Many are over 1½ miles long; not one has a high-rise.
Some are entirely unoccupied; some have beach bars, visually pleasing hotels, and
spectacular villas. All beaches are public and entirely uncrowded.
The waters off of these beaches are equally spectacular. Anguilla is a snorkeler's paradise.
Go in directly off of the beach, or take one of the many dive boats—for snorkeling or
scuba.
Weather is warm (highs in the high 80's; lows in the low 70's) but always breezy. The
winds come from the east and keep you cool during the day. Blue skies with puffy clouds
are the norm. Brief showers reinvigorate the foliage.
Getting to Anguilla
Anguilla is in that portion of the Caribbean known as the "Leewards", 6 miles north
of Saint Martin and less than 200 miles east of Puerto Rico. The primary air carrier
into Anguilla's Wallblake Airport is American Eagle (from San Juan ), which coordinates
with American Airline flights into and out of the United States and Canada. Also, many
carriers provide jet service into nearby Saint Martin. The short trip from St. Martin
to Anguilla is made by small charter flight or a ferry ride (a wonderful way to see Anguilla
for the first time).
