Anguilla is a level coral atoll with abundant breath-taking beaches. The name comes from the Spanish word for eel, named apparently because of the island's long, narrow profile.

The highest point on the island is only 213 feet (65m) above sea level. The main town, The Valley, is found almost in the middle of the island. Most hotels and restaurants are found on the western point of the island.
