Public Beaches
Anguilla, renowed for its twelve miles of beautiful, pristine white sand beaches meeting crystal clear blue waters.
The unsuspecting visitor is speechless on first glimpse. Thus, more and more
Europeans, Americans and Canadians are being lured to the lovely shores of this
special little Caribbean isle.

Barnes Bay |
Situated at West End, at this gorgeous beach there is a feeling of adventure
just climbing down the crag from the luxurious Coccoloba Hotel to the powdery,
white sand below once down. With your back to the wall, you will want to rush
forward clothes and all, to instantly enjoy the sparkling sea. At the head of the
beach, the snorkeling is superb. Myriads among the coral. Quite often, swarms
of near-transparent fries, fleeing from sharp-eyed benita and cavally, fly in flight
in perfect unison on the surface in the in-shore. The sea, often smooth, is
sometimes challenging. Windsurfers love the gentle breezes, which bathe the
shoreline ever so salubriously, as they ride the wavelets. As much fun in the
sea and sun, you can always relax in the shade of the chalky hillside or under a
beach umbrella. Down from Coccoloba Hotel. there's Mango's, a seaside grill
that has made quite a name for itself in a very short time.

Little Bay |
Tranquil... Secluded... Stunning... Unique. Fish nusery.
Accessible mainly by boat--day or sunset cruises.
Great for snorkelling, SCUBA-diving, bird-watching,
picknicking, and weddings. A "must while in Anguilla".

Rendezvous Bay |
This historically famous beach has been the
invading point of French soldiers from St. Martin
in days gone by before close friendship ties
were established between the two islands. This
mile and a half long half-moon white ribbon of
beach separates the calm, blue Caribbean from
the still undeveloped countryside. Rendezvous
Bay appeals to all types of fun-seekers. At the
top is the Rendezvous Bay Hotel Restaurant with the Pineapple Beach Club in
the middle. At the western end, the newly opened Casablanca Resort is
already renowned for its excellent cuisine and architectural beauty.

Sandy Ground |
This half moon beach with its tranquil, clear blue sea is the home to yachts and
other pleasure craft which shelter in land-locked comfort. Restaurants, all
providing the finest in food and drink in very attractive and comfortable
surroundings, line the beach. Just feet away, on the other side of the white
ribbon of sparkling sand, the oil-calm sea is alive with watersport activities.
While ideal for wind surfing and water-skiing, the snorkeling is unfortunately
limited. However, there is no limit to the amount of sun-bathing that can be
done for it is on this beach that the sun goes down in all its glory!

Shoal Bay |
Truly spectacular. One of the prettiest beaches in the Caribbean. But this
2-mile L-shape beach of talcum-powder-soft white sand is definately worth a
visit. There are beach chairs, umbrellas, a backdrop of sea-grape and coconut
trees, and for seafood and tropical drinks there's Trader Vic's, Uncle Ernie,
and the Round Rock. Souvenir shops for T-shirts, suntan lotion, and the like
abound. There's good snorkeling in the offshore coral reefs, and the
watersports center here can arrange diving, sailing, and fishing trips.
