the beach is excellent - waves can be a bit strong depending on whether there was a storm the previous/current day (obviously); a good selection of restaurants to choose from. The beach chairs/umbrellas for rent at $10.00/day/person is a bit much considering many were torn and marked up - aside from this, it's worth it if your goal is to... More

I think everyone makes Shoal Bay beach part of their trip to Anguilla. It's gorgeous and the blue water reminded me very much of Bora Bora but without the 12 hour flight.

i'm not sure if i missed something of not but i really wasnt sure what all the hype is about. all the beaches in anguilla are nice what i can say is i didn't see anything here nicer then any other?

The first is immigration control where they will handwrite your passport and name on a passenger manifest. You will receive a boarding pass which looks like monopoly money.... More

A must see on Anguilla and one of, if not THE nicest beach on the planet. Can get quite windy and the sea not as calm as I'd like, but it's just a beautiful part of a beautiful island. A must see. Plenty of choice of places to eat and drink, but take a walk up to the northern part,... More

Since we were told that Shoal Bay east was one of the world's best, we decided to spend a day there. It was a bit windy, so snorkeling was a bit of a hit and miss. We also wanted to try the glassbottom boat ride, but decided the sea was just a bit rough. All in all, a great day... More
