A Top Spot For a Beach Day
Whether lunching at Garvey's on Rendezvous Bay or grabbing a drink at Tropical Sunset on Shoal Bay East, every day at the beach is a treat.
What goes perfect with beaching? Lounging on... and on... and on... Beach, eat, snooze, repeat is an all-time favorite activity of every Anguilla lover ;-)
One question we get asked frequently is about beach chair policy. Can you rent beach chairs at the big resorts? Do restaurants include beach chairs with lunch? Are they available at an added cost?

Before we begin, note that all hotel and resort beach chairs are reserved for on-property guests. Any exceptions and all other beachfront establishments are listed below.
Let's begin in...
Anguilla's West End is famous for its world-class beaches including Meads Bay, Maunday's Bay, Shoal Bay West and Rendezvous Bay. They are all home to some of the Caribbean's top beach bars and beach-front restaurants.
Tulsa's Punch
A Must-Have at Trattoria Tramonto
Meads Bay in particular is known for its high-end dining establishments. From indulgent Jacala, to Savi Beach Club's impressive and sophisticated beach club, spending a day or two experiencing Meads Bay is a must when on an Anguilla vacation.
Sumptuous Savi Beach Club
Plenty of Meads Bay's bars & restaurants offer complementary beach chair access to their patrons. Others offer chairs at a fee.
Lounging at Cap Shack on Maunday's Bay
Other beautiful beaches in the West End include Maunday's Bay, Shoal Bay West and Rendezvous Bay. They are all "must visits," each unique in their sand, their water and curvature of their bays. That's not all! Each beach offers a unique dining experience.
Here's who rents chairs to the public on these beaches...
Moving east of West End, the middle of Anguilla has a number of sweet stretches of sand and funky beach bars.
First up, on Crocus Bay...

On the opposite coast, Ferryboat Inn serves up excellent burgers and rum punches with a beautiful view of St. Martin!
... aka beach capital of Anguilla!
World famous and rightly so, Shoal Bay has a number of sought after beach bars lining its two-mile long stretch of pristine white sand.
Don't be surprised if you park your car at Tropical Sunset and find yourself meandering down the beach, marveling at the water, the sand, and stopping in at every beach bar along the way.
Love Those Shoal Bay Blues
Refueling with drinks and food is easy with so many prime spots lining the sand.
Beachfront at Olas
Last but not least in Anguilla's East End, just 5 minutes from Shoal Bay, Scilly Cay is the ultimate in beach treats.
A mouthwatering BBQ restaurant on an island all its own, Scilly Cay delivers the most soothing of beach days.
Catch their boat from the Island Harbour pier ($5) and sit back, relax and float on in total calm!
