Sun gets in your Eyes

The first thing you will probably notice about Anguilla when you step off the plane or ferry is the immediate urge to put on your sun glasses. Don’t waste a moment. This island is known for its sunny skies and with good reason. Long, narrow and flat, Anguilla attracts sunshine like a bee to honey. There are no mountains or tall building to stop clouds as they pass by and because there is not much rain, the vegetation is low and the glare is high. The sea is close by even in the middle of the island. This causes even more glare. The island is made up of coral rock causing sun rays to bounce about in every direction.
