Tours to Little Bay typically involve a short boat ride or water taxi transfer from Crocus Bay, taking guests directly into the calm, turquoise cove. Once inside, visitors can swim, float, relax or explore the shoreline surrounded by dramatic rock walls. Depending on the operator, tours may include sightseeing along the cliffs, brief stops for photos or time for snorkeling around the protected bay. Little Bay is one of Anguilla's most secluded beaches, known for peaceful water, exceptional clarity and a quiet atmosphere created by the surrounding cliffs. Tour guests often describe it as one of the island's most memorable natural highlights. The cove's sheltered shape keeps the water calm on most days, making it ideal for snorkeling close to shore. Visitors may see small reef fish, natural rock formations and excellent color variations depending on light and tide. Many tours begin at Crocus Bay, where local captains offer quick water taxi access to Little Bay. For details on the departure area, visit our guide to
