Must bring Home
Anguilla is truly unique in the Caribbean as it does not have a large town centre—instead it is dotted with small villages. If you enjoy bringing home rare treasures, shops are everywhere and sell just about everything from handmade crafts to international treasures. Be sure to bring home a one-of-a-kind model racing boat from one of the gift shops on the island. Handmade by two brothers, these scale models of traditional racing boats are anchored by a unique base, shaped like the island, with a local 25 cent coin at the bottom used for balance. A spectacular souvenir to remind you of the memories made in Anguilla and one that will make you want to keep coming back for more.
