Hiking
on Anguilla
Although Anguilla is a small island, only
17 miles (27km) long and 3 miles (4km) wide
at its widest point, much of it is still
uninhabited with excellent opportunities
for exploring. Since the island is very
narrow at many points it is possible to
see both coasts while walking through the
low bush and rock formations along the coast.
Roads have been cut through much of the
bush anticipating building projects but
many have been abandoned for now making
them excellent places to start your journey.

Mountain
Bikes
Rent a mountain bike and ride the back roads
of Anguilla. There are plenty of marl roads
around the island with spectacular sights along
the way. Many hotels have bicycles availiable
for their guests. If you are staying in a villa,
you can rent a bike from local bike rentals.

Tennis
If you are staying at one of Anguilla's resorts
tennis is no problem. Most resorts not only
have tennis courts they also have a resident
pro and a pro shop. But if you are staying in
a villa or hotel without a court and want to
play here are a few suggestions.
Public courts: There are 3 public courts on
the island at the present time.
East End Village has a tennis court and basketball
court located next to the Elementary School
on the main road.
Ronald Webster Park in The Valley has two lighted
courts with a parking area behind the walled
in court area. Located near the traffic circle
on Coronation Ave.
Both these courts are first come first serve,
excuse the pun.
