Anguilla is actually a long, flat coral formation. The highest point is only about 200 feet above sea level. The island's 35 square miles are home to countless limestone caves, bays, coves, and salt ponds. The northernmost of the Leeward Islands, Anguilla is just five miles north of St. Maarten/St. Martin.
The tropical seasons are "Wet" and "Dry," with overall warm and sunny weather year-round. Temperatures average 74°F in the Dry season from December to May, and an average of 81°F in the Wet season from June to November. The heart of hurricane season lasts from late August to early November, though strikes are rare and there is plenty of advance notice to prepare. When threatened by a hurricane strike, one should expect a 2-day displacement from evacuation to safe return.
