Anegada

Anegada

An estimated 300 wrecks lie offshore (the origin of the island's name lies in the Spanish angear, to drown or to flood) and provide wide opportunities for divers searching diving for treasure (unlikely) or pristine environments of fish and coral formations (likely). In 1992, the government released flamingos on the island, with the aim of creating a preserve. Turtles can be seen nesting on the beaches along the north shore during their nesting season. The entire north shore and west end is an extensive, uninterrupted beach, with little shade and few facilitiesm, so bring along hats and sunscreen.
