The experience
The first thing I noticed was the salt in the air: sharp and clean as we zipped away from the dock. Our guide, Marcus, grinned like he’d done this a thousand times (he probably had), steering us out toward Sandy Island. There’s something about watching Anguilla shrink behind you that makes everything else fade out. The boat was fast but not wild. I could still hear someone behind me laughing about forgetting sunscreen. When we landed, the sand was so white it almost hurt my eyes, and there was this faint smell of grilled fish coming from somewhere downwind.
I didn’t expect Little Bay to feel so hidden. You can only get there by boat, which somehow makes it feel like a secret, even though Calvin, another local captain, waved at us like we were old friends. I slid into the water with one of those pool noodles (never too old for that) and floated above these bright little fish darting around. The cliffs looked taller from below than I thought they would. Someone tried to pronounce “Meads” with a French accent: Li laughed so hard she nearly dropped her snorkel.
Lunch hit just when I needed it: soft bread, something salty and French layered inside, cold drink sweating in my hand. Meads Bay felt almost too calm for how many people were actually there: like everyone agreed to keep things quiet. The water was that impossible blue you see in postcards but don’t really believe until you’re standing in it. I wandered up the beach for a bit. Didn’t find anything except more sand and a couple of locals playing dominoes under a palm tree.
Rendezvous Bay was our last stop and honestly, by then I’d lost track of time. St. Martin hovered on the horizon like a mirage. Some folks stretched out on towels, others just walked along the edge where the waves barely reached their ankles. I kept thinking about how easy it is to forget your own worries when all you can hear is wind and water, and maybe someone else’s laughter drifting over from down the beach.
