Meads bay attractions -not only sun & beach
Even in the Caribbean, where beaches rule, Anguilla's beaches are known for being the best of the best. Soft, brilliant-white sands stretch out against clear blue waters. While there are other things to do on the island, spending time in the sand and surf is the number-one reason to come here. One of the best ways to see Anguilla’s natural and historical attractions is to take a guided walk. The local art galleries showcase works by the Caribbean and Anguillan communities. Day trips onboard glass-bottom boats and sailing charters can be arranged for those guests wanting to explore the surrounding sea life and coral islands without getting wet. Anguilla boasts 33 beaches, and plenty of water sports such as water-skiing, scuba diving, snorkelling and parasailing. Other sports include tennis, fishing and horseback riding. The recipient of Best Resort in the Caribbean Award in the 2004 Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Survey, and the Gold List 2005, Malliouhana Hotel & Spa has been regarded as one of the finest resorts in the Caribbean since its opening in 1984. Stretched over 25 acres of lush, landscaped gardens, perched atop a panoramic bluff overlooking the azure blue waters of the Caribbean and reaching down to the fine, white sands of Meads Bay and Turtle Cove beaches, the resort perfectly blends the understated European elegance incorporating the finest elements of service, comfort, fine dining and the warmth and hospitality of the Caribbean. With peaceful waves, many beaches are good for swimming. However, strong currents and dangerous undertows make a few areas too treacherous for a dip in the water. This is especially true near Anguilla's northernmost tip, though rough spots are scattered here and there around the island. But they're still excellent places for picnicking, hiking, or watching the boats go by. For a fun diversion, some beaches offer water sports. Large hotels often provide equipment to their guests, so if you're staying at one you may be able to get all you need and head right out to the water. Parasailing, water-skiing, paddle-boating, and more await you. Coral reefs teeming with marine life make for magnificent snorkeling and scuba diving. Several old shipwrecks also can be investigated by certified divers. If you're not quite that adventurous, you can still see underwater wonders on a glass bottom boat tour. Anguilla's visitors will also discover some interesting natural phenomena on its beaches. Coral sculptures, washed ashore by the waves, almost look as if they were artfully placed by hand. More secluded beaches give several turtle species perfect spots for their annual trip ashore to nest.
