August 16, 2024

Anguilla is the epitome of a relaxing, exclusive getaway in the sun. This Caribbean jewel has been consistently named one of the top sun destinations in the world, and its pristine shores and crystalline azure waters are particularly enticing to discerning luxury travelers.

When you select Anguilla as your cherished retreat, you inherently recognize that you will not encounter towering hotels, bustling cruise ships, or lively casinos. This understanding is undoubtedly a part of the allure drawing you to this exquisite destination. Instead, you will discover pristine beaches—unmarred by crowds of noisy visitors—where you may recline with that long-anticipated book or simply immerse yourself in the tranquility, inhaling the refreshing sea breeze and feeling the sand dance beneath your toes. 

For those moments when a touch of activity beckons, Anguilla offers impeccable settings for snorkeling, diving, kitesurfing, and many other aquatic pursuits that indulge your adventurous spirit.
Anguilla has 33 beaches, so choosing one that suits your desires may be overwhelming. We have compiled a list of five of the loveliest beaches on the island, with diverse offerings and guaranteed fun in the sun.

Cove Bay Beach

Cove Bay also has a dock where the local fishermen anchor and unload their daily catches. The cove area is ideal for swimming, and there are other pluses. Smokey’s at the Cove Restaurant—the only eatery on this stretch of shore—has some of the best barbecues on the island, according to the locals, along with music on the beach. A rock and coral reef at the east end provides ideal snorkeling in calm weather.

Maunday’s Bay Beach

You will be welcomed to this beach by a glorious stretch of gold-dust-like sand offset by cerulean water, more vivid than on any other beach in Anguilla. Perhaps that’s part of the reason Maundy’s Bay Beach has the moniker of being one of the ritziest and most magnificent beaches in Anguilla. The tepid water is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or just floating on a soft current without care. High-end restaurants, tennis courts, and luxury spas are within easy distance.

Little Bay Beach

Little Bay Beach gets the gold medal for something breathtaking and uniquely romantic. This secluded gem can only be accessed by boat or rope leading down from a lofty cliff. The area is set apart from other beaches, so there are no hotels or restaurants nearby, but that is what so many find so alluring.  Relaxation is the catchword when spending time on this piece of heaven. We’ll make sure your steward packs a luxury picnic hamper and snorkel gear for you since this is the ideal spot to frolic with marine life, such as turtles, stingrays, and a host of colorful fish.
