Anguilla is an island in the eastern Caribbean Sea, a British overseas territory. It is the most northerly of the Leeward Islands in the Lesser Antilles lying east of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands and directly north of Saint Martin.

The name Anguilla is derived from the Italian, Spanish, and French words for "eel" (anguilla, anguila, anguille), adopted by early European explorers due to the island's long, thin, snake-like shape.
