Where to Eat in Anegada

By: Nick Cunha | Last Updated: May 4, 2017

Before Columbus discovered Anegada, the island was most likely inhabited by Amerindian people. Numerous conch shell along the southeastern shore suggest that these early inhabitants harvested vast amounts of conch from the reefs around Anegada and since no evidence of a permanent settlement has ever been excavated, it is believed that perhaps this harvesting was a seasonal operation.

The first permanent settlements on Anegada were established in the 1780s when small-scale cotton planters began cultivating portions of the island. Farming and fishing provided some income for the growing population, along with salvaging shipwrecks.

The fishing heritage really resonates in the food you can find on Anegada, not to mention the annual lobster festival.
