Everyone always talks about Shoal Bay and how great it is. True, the beach is nice, but there are better on the island.

The nearest car hire outlet is no more than a few minutes' walk from the small terminal building.Some tourists also visit Anguilla in order to set up an offshore account, trust or IBC. OK, fine, but be careful which trust company and/or law firm you use. Regulation is light and the firms vary much in their quality and probity. Do not make a decision based on factors such as the best website or office...Of the three or four supermarkets on the island, the one with the lowest prices is the green-painted one by the crossroads stoplight in The Valley (Anguilla only has two or three sets of traffic lights).
