Anegada Guide. British Virgin Islands, Caribbean. The only coral island in the Virgin Islands' volcanic chain, Anegada is characterized by its nearly flat elevation, the striking coral reefs that surround it, secluded sandy beaches and clear springs bubbling from coral beds.

Beachgoers will find no lack of calm and quiet shores, including Cow Wreck Beach, Flash of Beauty, Bones Bight and Windlass Bight. Discover Anegada's history through a maze of stone walls that surround the Main Town's Settlement or the Arawak's ancient conch mounds in the East End. Or, explore the wreckages of numerous Spanish galleons, American privateers and British Galleons.
