A small shoreline of rock and sand opens towards Saint Martin, inviting a quiet pause along Anguilla’s southern coast.
Pelican Bay lies on Anguilla’s southern shore near Blowing Point, where waterfront villas overlook a small coast of rock and sand. The view across to Saint Martin is its defining feature: a mountainous horizon beyond the channel, seen from a shoreline with a quiet residential atmosphere. It suits photographers, couples and independent visitors who enjoy discovering less prominent stretches of coast. A visit can be as simple as time by the water followed by a meal in nearby Blowing Point. Snorkelling is another possibility when local conditions allow, although rocky entry points and occasional seaweed accumulation make advance advice useful.

Pelican Bay lies east of Blowing Point on Anguilla’s southern coast, with the shoreline continuing towards Lockrum Bay. Small sandy sections interrupt the rocky waterfront, and villas occupy parts of the coast. Saint Martin provides the principal outlook across the channel, giving even a short visit a strong sense of the relationship between the two islands. For photographers, the contrast between textured foreground rocks and the mountain profile across the water is the main attraction. Try a wider composition to show the channel, then move closer to study the shoreline. Early or late daylight can soften the contrast; the clearest view depends on the weather and visibility. Snorkelling Report identifies this southern bay as a shallow-water location with small corals, fish and anemones. It also notes that sargassum can accumulate here. Plan any snorkelling around current visibility, seaweed conditions and advice on a suitable entry point. The presence of shallow water alone does not establish easy access or safe swimming. Before visiting, confirm the public approach and a suitable place to park. Anguilla’s tourism board describes the island’s beaches as publicly accessible; neighbouring villa driveways and private amenities require separate consideration. Bring drinking water, sun protection and footwear suitable for uneven ground. Public restrooms, chair rentals and equipment hire have not been verified for this bay. For a meal, look towards nearby Blowing Point. The Ferryboat Inn is a casual waterfront restaurant known for burgers and home-style dishes. Confirm its current opening hours directly and allow for travel between the bay and the restaurant.
