Anguilla
Refined Island Cruising at the Heart of the Northern Leewards
Anguilla: Refined Northern Leewards Cruising
Anguilla offers a quieter, more discreet character than many of its northern Leeward neighbours. Its low-lying coastline encompasses 33 beaches, Road Bay, Crocus Bay and Rendezvous Bay, while Sandy Island, Prickly Pear Cays and other offshore islands add variety to yacht itineraries. High-end resorts and waterfront dining complement an unhurried atmosphere, while traditional Anguillian boat racing—an important part of island culture—gives the destination a distinctive sailing identity.

Anguilla works particularly well as a relaxed owner or charter-guest stop, with tender access to beaches, restaurants, spas and private resort experiences. Captains and yacht managers benefit from experienced yacht agent support, manageable guest transfers and close proximity to the broader logistics and technical resources of St Maarten. Anguilla fits naturally into St Martin–Anguilla–St Barths northern Leeward's cruising itineraries, offering a quieter interlude between busier yachting centres without requiring long passages or a heavily scheduled programme.
International Access
Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport handles regional, scheduled international and private aviation, including light and midsize business jets. Wider connections are available through nearby Princess Juliana International Airport in Sint Maarten.
Yachting Infrastructure
Road Bay is Anguilla’s main yacht anchorage. Local yacht agents coordinate provisioning, fuel and shoreside requirements. There is currently no operational full-service marina, major shipyard or confirmed superyacht haul-out facility; substantial technical services and skilled trades are generally sourced through nearby St Maarten.
Road Bay at Sandy Ground is a working port and yacht anchorage rather than a conventional marina.
