Island 9 - Anegada
05 December 2011
Sailed the next day to Anegada, the winds were in our favor and the passage went well. Almost all the islands in the BVI`s are mountainous volcanic formations - hilly and green. This is not the case for Anegada - it is comprised of coral and limestone with the highest point being 28 feet above sea level. The island is 11 miles long with mile after mile of sandy beaches. We stayed two nights at this anchorage. Rented a scooter and did our usual tour of the island, driving down each road, only to find a private driveway. The map provided to us was a postcard. It is still very slow here in the islands, their busy season starts around Christmas, so we saw few other travelers. I was hoping to see the pink flamingos, but we could not find them - Bummer! This was a wonderful anchorage with clear blue-green water, and a cool breeze.
