πŸ‘‰πŸ‘‰πŸ‘‰Must do while in Anguilla: The Anguilla ArchπŸ‘ˆπŸ‘ˆπŸ‘ˆ

There are any other beaches in Anguilla worth visiting, but since we rented a compact vehicle we were unable to reach them due to the poor condition of the dirt roads. A 4x4 is required.  
Also we tried contacting the Anguilla Heritage to know more about the island and its history, as they offer tours and information, but it was closed every time we tried it.
