Anguilla

Anguilla is a self-governing overseas territory of the United Kingdom, that consists of Anguilla Island itself, and small adjacent Islands and coral reefs around. Many years ago, the Spaniards called this Island as an «eel» because of its elongated shape, then the colonizers grew cotton, tobacco and sugar cane here. Now Anguilla is an elite destination that combines the refined luxury of expensive resorts and an informal relaxation of the Caribbean Islands. Snow-white beaches, turquoise lagoons, coral reefs, rich underwater world, perfect service, first-class restaurants, yacht clubs and remoteness from civilization - this is what attracts the most discerning customers and Hollywood celebrities.
