A boat day

in Anguilla

Beach paradise

Anguilla is an English island, located just across from St. Martin. It is an island with very little hills, with a small population, but above all, Anguilla is well known for hosting the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbeans.

Huge white sandy beaches, deserted, crystal clear waters... Discovering this little corner of paradise with your rental boat is an unforgettable experience.

An endless white sand beach

Rendez-vous Bay is, as the name suggests, a rendez-vous not to be missed when venturing to Anguilla.


Located just opposite from Anse Marcel, 20 to 30 minutes by boat from the marina (depending on the weather), this bay is nicknamed "the pool of the Caribbean", as the sea is incredibly clear and magnificent.


Drop your anchor, dive into the water... Your dream day begins in the best possible conditions.

Luxury at its finest

This is the second stage of your boat day in Anguilla.


Still on the coast facing St. Martin, this bay, a few minutes by boat from Rendez-vous Bay, is named after the 5-stars hotel that is located on the beach: Cap Juluca.


Another white sand beach, this time located in a rounded bay with a beautiful reef to get your snorkeling gear out and say hello to the fish.

Meads Bay, the majestic

You have now passed the western side of Anguilla, and you are on the north coast of the English island.


After about 20 minutes of sailing along the cliffs, you will arrive at Meads Bay, a new white sand beach as far as the eye can see.

One part of the beach is occupied by various hotels, villas and restaurants, but the other is quite deserted, ready to welcome you.


Turn off the engines, have a drink, and enjoy the moment with your feet in the hot sand.

Lunch break and cliffs

Crocus Bay is one of our favorite places in Anguilla. After the beaches of Rendez-vous Bay, Cap Juluca, and Meads Bay, drop your anchor at the bottom of Crocus cliffs, just in front of the tiny beach of Little Bay.


The decor changes completely, the water is still transparent but deeper, you will fully enjoy the pleasure of being on a boat.


For adventurers, it is possible to climb one of the cliffs and jump into the water. Sensations and souvenir photos are key.

The highlight of the show

You have certainly heard about it, and probably dreamed of this little sand spit in the middle of the ocean. It really exists and you will have the opportunity to go there with your rental boat from SXM Boat Rental.


Welcome to Sandy Island, heaven on earth, only accessible by boat.

Here you will find a few palm trees, crystal clear water, a rich reef, and a restaurant bar.


This "postcard" place will leave you speechless.

A day Sailing to Prickly Pear

Prickly Pear is an island located northwest of Anguilla.


To get there from the marina of Anse Marcel aboard one of our rental boats, you need optimal weather conditions.

In these cases, it takes 1h30 to travel there, then on the way back.

Prickly Pear is therefore a destination of "unique" choice during a boat day, to be able to take full advantage of it.


You will find a magnificent beach with a small local restaurant, a large reef for superb dives with flippers, mask and snorkel... Enough to disconnect completely.
