General presentation
Anguilla
Low limestone island, Anguilla line long beaches, saline and villages scattered in a peaceful Caribbean atmosphere.
The discovery of Anguilla revolves around Shoal Bay East, Sandy Ground and Wallblake House. The stay thus alternates between the island landscapes, the coastline and the natural spaces, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Nature and landscape
Shoal Bay East
Shoal Bay East is rolling a long ribbon of pale sand on the northeast coast of Anguilla, with clear water that quickly becomes shallow. Beach bars remain in retreat from swimming, and rocky areas sometimes offer good underwater glimpses; however, the wind can change the color and comfort of the lagoon.
Place indismissible
Sandy Ground
Sandy Ground stretches between a sheltered bay and a salt pond, making it one of Anguilla's most alive anchorages. There are fishing boats, sailboats, beach bars and traces of salty activity; the end of the day often gives the best measure of the village.
Culture and heritage
Wallblake House
Wallblake House preserves the architecture of an old plantation near The Valley, with outbuildings, cistern and stone walls that place Anguilla in its colonial history. The visit is worth the concrete details of the building more than the stage: simple volumes, local materials, closed courtyard and memory of an agricultural estate.
