Anguilla: The Serene Island
Introduction
Anguilla, often referred to as Snake Island, is one of the northernmost islands in the Leeward Islands of the Lesser Antilles. Known for its tranquility and stunning landscapes, Anguilla is a popular destination for travelers seeking a peaceful Caribbean retreat.
Historical Background
Initially colonized by English settlers in 1650, Anguilla became part of a British dependency alongside Saint Kitts and Nevis by the early 19th century. Despite resistance from the local population, Anguilla maintained this status until 1980, when it formally separated to become its own British overseas territory. Today, it remains under British protection, with defense responsibilities handled by the United Kingdom.
Governance
As a British overseas territory, Anguilla's governance includes a Governor appointed by the British government, while the local administration is led by an elected Chief Minister.
Economy and Culture
Anguilla’s economy is modest, primarily driven by tourism and fishing. Offshore banking also plays an increasingly significant role. The majority of Anguillans are of African descent and predominantly Protestant, contributing to the island's rich cultural tapestry.
Tourism
Renowned for its serene and laid-back atmosphere, Anguilla has become a sought-after tourist destination. If you're planning a Caribbean getaway, be sure to include Anguilla in your itinerary. Its pristine beaches and vibrant culture will make your trip unforgettable.
