Tranquility Wrapped in Blue

For years one of the Caribbean’s best-kept secrets, this small, serene island in the 1980s embarked on a careful plan of marketing itself as a top-end destination with a handful of resorts. Anguilla (rhymes with “vanilla”) deliberately turned its back on the package tours, casinos and cruise ships, and glitz of neighbouring St. Maarten. It’s remained a chic but unaffected island destination, with dozens of secluded powdery-soft-sand beaches and sparkling green seas.10
