ANGUILLA Tranquility Wrapped in Blue Sandy Hill Bay Savannah Bay Wallblake Airport The Valley West End A T L A N T I C O C E A N Meads Bay Ferry Terminal to St. Martin 0 4 miles 0 4 km "Tranquility wrapped in blue" may be a romantic way for locals to describe this northernmost island in the Leeward chain, but it's apt. Just a short shuttle away from St. Martin and quick flight from Puerto Rico, this serene island is steps from the beaten path, preserving character and exclusivity. A single road connects tip to tip, with dusty streets branching off to delightful surprises, from quaint villages to majestic hotels and 33 intimate beaches. Public, yet uncrowded and unspoiled, each are uniquely marked with rock and coral formations, picturesque tropical plants, and a reputation for being among the world's best. Is your bliss a beach that blinds with white sands, electric seas, and bright beach bars? Shoal Bay is where you should stay. Are plush sands, classy dining, and posh hotels your ideal retreat? Meads Bay is what you seek. Or is lively conversation over a casual meal what you crave, with dancers spinning behind you to the beat of live music? Then make Sandy Ground, the island's "entertainment capital," a must. 1 7 2 3 4 6 5 12 | Anguilla
