About the Port
Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory at the northern tip of the Leeward Islands, is a low-lying stretch of coral and limestone prized for its powdery beaches and exceptionally clear water. The island's gentle terrain and surrounding reefs make it a natural draw for snorkeling, diving, and glass-bottomed boat excursions that reveal a colorful undersea world just offshore.
Beyond the water, the island keeps a quiet, unhurried character, with small settlements and open coastline rather than dense development. Travelers arriving by tender find the beaches and calm bays within easy reach of the port, making a half-day of sun and sea the easiest way to experience Anguilla's understated charm.
Pavlus Recommendations
How our planners would spend a day in Anguilla.
Relax on Shoal Bay
Often ranked among the Caribbean's finest beaches, this stretch of white sand and turquoise water lies a short taxi ride from the tender dock and offers casual beach bars for lunch.
Snorkel Shoal Bay's Reef
Fringing reefs just offshore shelter colorful fish and coral gardens easily reached by wading in from the beach; rent gear locally or book a guided reef swim in advance.
Cruise to Sandy Island
A tiny sandbar islet a short boat ride from Sandy Ground, ringed by clear shallows ideal for snorkeling and lounging; boats depart regularly but arrange a return time before setting out.
