Comments My wife,a nondiver, and I love the "no hype", laid-back attitude of Anguilla. 2009 was our tenth time there; Shoal Bay East is our favorite area. We have stayed at three diferent places over the years and have to say that the last, Shoal Bay Villas, is tops. The reef, like most in the Carribean, shows wear over last ten years but diving is still well worth while. We,our family, and friends always dive and snorkel with Shoal Bay Scuba and have always had a great time. The staff is professional and friendly, and are able to deliver dives that are geared, in ability and interest, to the diving group (which is most often less than 6 divers).
