Right on Rendezvous Bay, “The Shack” at CuisinArt has long been a favorite for refreshing, beach-side cocktails, expertly prepared.
Made with the freshest of ingredients that the drink calls for (melons, pineapples, coconuts, etc.), mixologist Justin always gets it right.
Two of our favorites?
The Frosty Coconut, blended with Malibu rum, amaretto and coconut cream
Laurel’s Special, mixed with pineapple, midori, anisette, white rum and amaretto.
A sweet mid-afternoon beach treat!
Another beautiful Easter weekend has come and gone here in Anguilla!
Marked by one of the island’s most anticipated festivals, Festival Del Mar, it was two days of sailing, swimming, fishing and, of course, dining on the freshest seafood to be had on the island.
Sailboat races!
Swimming contests!
The BIG fishing tournament!
And, BBQ after BBQ serving up tasty mahi mahi, lobster and crayfish right on the beach!…
Mikey’s
Our good friend and neighbor, known for having some of the freshest lobster on the island and at a reasonable price (you can catch him at his road-side BBQ on weekends in the Farrington just before the turn off to Ocean Terrace Condos if you’re heading East)…
… we spotted Mikey with his pop-up spot on the beach!
Stacked high and grilled to perfection, lobser and crayfish were in no short supply at Mikey’s.
Tropical Treats
Kyle Hodge, owner of the loyally-loved Anguillian-made ice cream parlor, Tropical Treats, showcased a brand NEW flavor this Festival Del Mar weekend…
Caramel with Anguilla sea salt!
A sweet and savory swirl of frosty flavor 🙂
Elite
After walking the beach and taking in the jovial atmosphere, it was time to refuel.
Elite’s lobster ravioli, one of our favorite dishes, was on our mind. A Festival Del Mar special, it was melt in your mouth perfect.
For good measure, we ordered some of our regular favorites, too, including the calamari, caprese salad with thick slices of fresh mozzarella…
And, my Mom’s favorite, the bolognese!
This week we have seen an uptick in seabirds on Anguilla’s wetlands. Brown Pelicans, Magnificent Frigatebirds, Brown Boobies and Royal Terns have been spotted feeding vigorously. We have also witnessed nesting activity at the back of the pond along with our first Killdeer chicks of the season. It is a great time for birding with over 20 different species of shore and seabirds seen on one wetland in just over and hour of viewing.
Book your tour today and come take a Walk on the Wild Side with Nature Explorers Anguilla.

Quite literally “on the rocks,” On Da Rocks’ setting is second to none with its expansive views of Island Harbours’ crystal-clear seas that shine a special shade of turquoise.
My Mom and I recently popped in for lunch with restaurant manager, Neyda. Â Sweet, kind and accommodating, she takes care of you well. Â What was for lunch? We asked Neyda “What’s fresh?” At her recommendation, we ordered the Mahi Mahi plate, served complete with fries and salad. Â Grilled and topped with a savory caper-esque sauce, it was truly high-value at a reasonable price.
Rule of thumb at On Da Rocks? Ask for Neyda and ask for what’s fresh!
