About Anguilla, Lesser Antilles

Floating languidly in the crystalline waters of the northern Lesser Antilles, Anguilla presents the Caribbean at its most elegantly refined, where blinding white talcum-powder beaches meet turquoise waters in a landscape devoid of cruise ships, casinos, or high-rise developments. Discerning travelers appreciate exceptional accommodations at Cap Juluca, a Belmond Property, with its Moorish-inspired villas lining Maundays Bay, and Four Seasons Resort featuring exclusive oceanfront residences with private infinity pools. The island's culinary reputation reaches extraordinary heights through establishments like Jacala, favored by celebrities for its perfect French-Caribbean fusion, and Veya, where locally caught seafood meets innovative tropical preparations. Private boat charters reveal secluded coves and uninhabited cays perfect for exclusive beach picnics, while world-class snorkeling at offshore reefs like Little Bay offers pristine marine encounters. Though consistently pleasant year-round, visit between November and July to avoid hurricane season, with January through April providing optimal sunny conditions.
