Anguilla isn't very big (only 16 miles by 3 miles at the widest spot), but it has a lot of places of interest, few road names, and few signs. Anguilla is the most northerly of the Leeward Islands, about 35 square miles, located at 18N, 63W, 150 miles east of Puerto Rico. Our friend Bill from Vancouver has been studying Anguilla intently because he is considering retiring here, but hasn't had time for a visit yet. He feels the need for a map to keep all the Anguilla place names in order. So here are a number of the maps of Anguilla from around the Internet, ranked and rated!
