Anguilla

Anguilla is a tiny island with a big reputation. With a population of some 12,000, Anguilla is a British Overseas Territory, 16 miles long, and 3 miles at her widest point. Boasting 33 white sand beaches with crystal clear waters, a contemporary international style, extraordinary vistas, world-class accommodations and mouth-watering cuisine, Anguilla is the culmination of your search for the idyllic tropical escape.

The island is a retreat for couples, families and singles, offering accommodations for the most discerning traveler.

And a plethora of choices await you. Visiting art galleries, touring historic sites and museums, horseback riding, dancing to island beats, excursions to the undersea world, sailing and snorkeling, or quiet days basking in the sun and enjoying the simple pleasure of sunset strolls.

International air service into Puerto Rico, St. Maarten and Antigua makes getting here easy. Entry requirements differ by country of origin but a valid passport is preferred. Anguilla's language is English, and the currency is the Eastern Caribbean dollar.
