Twelve
miles of absolutely stunning white sand and coral
beaches bordered by the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic
Ocean grace Anguilla's coastline. Powdery-white sands
surrounded by brilliant turquoise seas have earned
this island a reputation for having the best beaches
in the world - pristine, soft, silky, powdery and
uncrowded.
While
all of Anguilla's beaches are distinct from one another,
all are equally inviting. Clear calm waters ranging
in color from aquamarine to royal blue lap gently
at the shoreline. Each cove, bay and stretch of sand
is marked by unique characteristics such as varied
rock formations and picturesque tropical blooms. Committed
to achieving environmental sustainability, Anguilla
is protecting its natural beauty and resources by
caring for its beaches, dunes, reefs, shorelines and
coastal waters.
Constant
but tender trade wind breezes, coupled with an average
monthly temperature of 80 degrees and low humidity,
keep the beaches comfortable year-round. Calm, gentle
currents and long crescent shapes make swimming and
strolling Anguilla's beaches both safe and enjoyable.
Many
of the island's inviting and varied resorts and hotels
are situated directly on one of the island's 33 beaches,
which means you can place your toes in the water first
thing in the morning and be lulled to sleep by soothing
waves at night. Each of Anguilla's 33 beaches are
open to the public - visitors can take their pick
of all 33, or stay with their favorite during their
time on the island.
Beach-hopping
is a favored pastime of our visitors who relish sampling
long ribbons of quiet and serene white sands, picturesque
coves, beaches ringing harbour waters dotted with
colorful fishing boats, beaches where bistros and
the sounds of live music fill the air, beaches overlooked
by one of the many fine dining establishments where
a beach stroller can come out of the sun for haute
cuisine.

one will you choose as your favorite?
