From the Shore to the Wetlands

Merrywing Bay offers a smaller coastal setting within Aurora Anguilla’s two-beach resort, with pale sand and views towards Saint Martin. Its appeal lies in the choice of pace: spend time beside the water, arrange a meal at Sole di Mare, or use the area as a starting point for a wider day of exploration. Families staying at the resort have leisure facilities close by, while couples may prefer a quiet afternoon on the shore. Inland, the Merrywing Pond System adds a different dimension through its birdlife and wetland habitats. Beach time, dining and nature can sit comfortably within the same visit, with access to organised activities arranged separately.

Beach Guide

Discover Merrywing Bay

Merrywing Bay adjoins the wider Rendezvous Bay area, although a short rocky section separates the two sandy beaches. Aurora Anguilla Resort & Golf Club occupies both beachfront settings. When planning to explore beyond the bay, ask about the current route between them, including how to navigate the interruption in the sandy shoreline. On settled days, the bay suits a swim followed by time on the sand. Conditions can change with wind and swell, so assess the sea on arrival. Aurora’s current watersports information places its equipment service at Rendezvous Beach. Visitors interested in kayaking, paddleboarding or snorkelling excursions should confirm where activities begin, who can participate and what is included. Dining gives a visit a natural focal point. Sole di Mare serves Mediterranean cuisine with views towards Saint Martin, while Merrywing Café offers a more casual option for coffee, pastries and light refreshments. Seasonal schedules affect availability, so confirm opening dates and reservations when planning a beach-and-dining visit. Inland, the Merrywing Pond System introduces another side of the landscape. Natural wetlands and managed freshwater basins within the golf-course grounds provide habitat for waterbirds. The Caribbean Birding Trail records herons, egrets and White-cheeked Pintails here, among other species. Birdwatchers should enquire about a guided visit and permitted access before exploring the grounds. Later in the day, allow time to watch the changing light across the water. Saint Martin’s outline adds depth to coastal photographs when visibility is clear. For an evening on the sea, Aurora advertises sunset sailing experiences; the departure location and operating schedule need confirmation.
