Norman Island, Treasure Island

Did Robert Louis Stevenson ever visit these shores? An uninhabited isle of pirate mischief and countless legends, Norman Island seems to have come straight from the celebrated writer’s imagination.

Dog Island: an Avian Paradise

“Bird Island” would have been a more suitable name, as seabird colonies consider it a prime breeding ground. Dog Island appears on the horizon northwest of Anguilla, sheltered by three large sandbars (cays). This wonderland for ornithologists and those seeking wild flora and fauna is home to terns, frigates, gulls, and green sea turtles.
