Little Bay
North coast, Anguilla
Little Bay feels different from Anguilla’s long signature beaches. The cove is smaller, more enclosed and more adventurous in mood, with cliffs, clear water and a sense of being slightly hidden from the island’s easier rhythms. The journey there is part of the fun, which gives the outing a stronger sense of occasion than simply parking beside a famous strand. Its ranking reflects both quality and logistics. Little Bay can be memorable and visually dramatic, but it depends more heavily on access and sea conditions than the straightforward top-tier beaches. For visitors who like snorkelling, a tucked-away setting and a more active short excursion, though, it is one of the island’s most distinctive supporting experiences.
