Anguilla, an island situated directly north of Saint Martin takes
great pride in its pristine sandy beaches ideal for lounging in the
warm sun. This territory owes its name to its unique shape, that of
an eel. Boasting some of the most sumptuous beaches in the world,
the island rests an ever fashionable holiday hotspot for high-end
society, although the island remains relatively untouched by

tourists. Luxury summer resorts offer guests some of the most
amazing secluded beaches. Chic restaurants specializing in fine
local delicacies are highly reputed by visitors. Anguilla is a
culturally diverse Caribbean haven with at least
fifteen different churches on the island, an overseas British
territory where locals lead a tranquil and serene lifestyle. Spend

These two islands can be compared to two gardens sharing the same
fate. One of them could not be more proud of its sugarcane fields.
The other is the utter vacation resort. Saint-Kitts was the first
British territory in the Caribbean colonized in
1632. Since this time the island never ceased to cultivate British
tradition. The central square of the island’s capital, Basseterre,
is known as “the Circus” and tea is wildly celebrated by the
island’s 30 000 inhabitants, just like in England. This is the
ultimate sugarcane plantation, it’s principal resource. Visit all
of the island’s treasures during your visit to the island. Explore
the impregnable Brimstone fortress, a citadel conquered by the
French in the blink of an eye and immediately reconquered by the
English. Nevis, the smaller of the two islands, boasts different
landscapes. Peaceful and pleasant atmosphere reigning in
Charleston, the island’s main town, can be felt on Main Street
through ancient-style boutiques. The island’s coast is carpeted
with white sandy beaches, a charming oasis inviting visitors to
stay a while in one of the luxury resorts. Admiral Nelson stopped
here in the 18th century to stock up on water and met Frances
Nisbet, daughter of a plantator, whom he married in 1787.
