Anegada is the Caribbean island that even Caribbean people have not been to. Flat, remote, and entirely made of coral and limestone, it is home to wild flamingos, endangered rock iguanas, and beaches so empty your footprints may be the only ones all day. If you want to truly get off the grid without leaving the BVI, this is where you go.
Your 3-Day Sample Itinerary
Flamingo Pond & Setting Point
Drive (or bike) to Flamingo Pond to see wild Caribbean flamingos wading in the salt flats — a sight most visitors to the BVI never experience. Spend the afternoon at Setting Point watching the fishing boats come in, then have a quiet sunset dinner over the water.
Rock Iguanas & Cow Wreck Beach
Visit the Anegada Rock Iguana conservation site at the Head Start Nursery — these prehistoric-looking reptiles exist nowhere else on Earth. Then head to Cow Wreck Beach, one of the most remote and beautiful beaches in the entire Caribbean, for an afternoon of pure solitude.
Salt Ponds Birdwatching & Conch Shell Island
Explore the salt ponds on foot, spotting ospreys, herons, and more flamingos. Take a boat to Conch Shell Island — a surreal islet built from thousands of discarded conch shells. It is the kind of place that makes you feel like you have discovered something nobody else knows about.
