　　In a romantically lit, open-air, tin-roofed space, this long-standing spot run by a Californian couple turns out sophisticated Mexican fare: chipotle shrimp burritos, chili-crusted tuna tacos and lime-marinated steak quesadillas. The house margarita, by the glass or pitcher, is a must.

Must-see attractions

Heritage Collection Museum

　　Anguilla’s lone museum is curated by island historian Colville Petty who has amassed an astonishing and eclectic assortment of artifacts to chronicle milestones in Anguillan history. A wander through the different rooms lets you experience a well-curated timeline of events, from the settling of the ancient Arawaks to Queen Elizabeth...

　　Idyllic Shoal Bay East – a shimmering 2-mile stretch of brilliant pinkish-white sand strewn with tiny crushed shells – is still miraculously blight-free. There's a handful of small-scale resorts and villas as well as a string of laid-back beach bars along the sand, but it's surprisingly quiet, even in high...

　　Among Anguilla's more secluded beaches, west-facing Little Bay is a sublime sliver of sand with excellent swimming, snorkeling and sunsets. It can only be reached by boat. Drop by Da'Vida Bayside in Crocus Bay and ask for Calvin or whoever else is around to take you there. The round-trip fare...

　　Cradled by calm, crystal-clear waters, this pearly white crescent is idyllic for an extended stroll with a rum-punch stop or live music at Bankie Banx's Dune Preserve. The sprawling CuisinArt Resort and its golf course dominate the western end of the bay. There are several restaurants here although, for local...

Prickly Pear Cays

　　Perhaps topping even Anguilla's tiara of beaches, this twin island some 6 miles (10km) northwest of Sandy Ground seduces with its pristine white-sand beach and some of the region's best snorkeling and diving. On land, a restaurant-bar feeds hungry tummies with grilled foods, salads and sandwiches (mains US$18 to US$50)...

　　Live up, love it, live on! is the motto of this ultrafunky sandy chill zone decorated with old license plates and fronted by a flotilla of beach umbrellas in Rasta red, yellow and green. Chicken, ribs, snapper and lobster get a workout on the barbecue before being served on plastic...

　　A trip to this tiny solar-powered islet is the quintessential Anguilla dream experience. Picture pure white-sand beach fringed by palm trees, translucent waters for snorkeling amid the turtle- and grouper-filled coral. The on-site restaurant runs hourly boat shuttles from the second pier in Sandy Ground and cooks up delicious barbecued...

　　This long majestic white-sand beach exudes sultry languor and is a lovely spot to swim or take a sunset stroll. It's bookended by the Four Seasons and Malliouhana luxury hotels and also home to great restaurants like Blanchard's and Straw Hat. ...

　　In a romantically lit, open-air, tin-roofed space, this long-standing spot run by a Californian couple turns out sophisticated Mexican fare: chipotle shrimp burritos, chili-crusted tuna tacos and lime-marinated steak quesadillas. The house margarita, by the glass or pitcher, is a must. ...

Elvis' Beach Bar

　　The beer is ice-cold, the margaritas are strong and the rum punch is laced with amaretto at Elvis' salty beach bar, which also has a feisty menu of Mexican food (dishes US$10 to US$35). Hang out at the 16ft-boat-turned-bar or rock out to DJs or live bands during high-octane beach...

Sandy Island Office

　　Buy tickets for the trip out to Sandy Island at this little office next to Johnno's. ...

　　Fronting bobbing yachts and a couple of small piers, this golden-sand beach is calm, shallow and free from coral, making it a good spot to splash about. Snorkeling is best at the rocky northern end – keep an eye out for sea turtles; Scuba Shack rents gear. The beach bars...
