Just a short drive from The Valley, Crocus Bay with it's magnificent cliffs and view of Anguilla's off-shore cays is also the gateway to Little Bay. Often overlooked, this beach is great for swimming and snorkeling. Get in the water at Crocus Bay and swim all the way to Little Bay. The swim is easy, the water is shallow and is full of reef fish and coral. There is a small beach only accessable by water between Crocus and Little Bay. Here's a thought...go in the morning, snorkel to Little Bay, arrange with Calvin's Little Bay Boat Service to pick you up and carry you back.

Little Bay is Anguilla's best kept secret, a tiny quiet beach, fantastic snorkelling...
You can get there by climbing down the cliff but a better way is to take Carl's water taxi from Crocus Bay.

Voted one of the ten best beaches in the Caribbean. Shoal Bay in the east is the most popular beach on Anguilla. This means that a good portion of the beach is lined with beach bars, small resorts and umbrellas. Fortunately they seem to blend into the background and actually come in handy when you are ready for lunch. Elodias,Maderimans and Uncle Ernies have good food at the right price and shade. Head east around the bend for lunch at Gwen's Reggae Grill. The water is perfect, a giant pool of clear blue with a sprinkling of tiny fish right off shore. A short distance from the gradually sloping soft white sand is a live reef full of colorful fish and coral. For a great day on the water off Shoal Bay beach, look for Junior and his glass bottom boat. Get an all around view of Shoal Bay with a panorama. Stay within walking distance of the beach!
