IS ANGUILLA WORTH SAILING TO? OUR INSIDER'S VIEW OF PROS AND CONS NOT EVERYONE KNOWS.

Sailing Anguilla — pristine beaches, beautiful coastlines, and some of the clearest water in the Caribbean. But is it worth the visit? We break down the pros, the cons, and everything you need to know before you sail there.

After clearing into Road Bay, we explore Sandy Island, Prickly Pear, Meads Bay, Little Bay, and Crocus Bay — sharing anchorage tips, costs, and the local spots worth visiting. We also cover Anguilla's confusing customs and clearance fee structure (based on gross tonnage), so you know exactly what to expect before you arrive.
