A 91-square-kilometre island and the ferry from Saint Martin
Anguilla is small — about 91 km² of flat coral limestone, 19,000 residents, no big airport. Most travelers fly into Princess Juliana on Saint Martin and ride the 25-minute ferry across to Blowing Point. A week here is the long beaches — Shoal Bay, Meads Bay, Rendezvous Bay — and dinner at a beach bar. The connectivity story is shaped by the geography: short distances, dense town coverage, mostly-fine beach signal.
Roamzy charges $14.03 per gigabyte in Anguilla. That's $0.0137 per megabyte, billed in real time on Anguillan networks. No subscription, no expiry, no minimum bundle. One per-MB rate across 193 countries is the shape of the invoice, not a marketing line.
How much will Roamzy actually cost on this trip?
A typical visitor uses 0.3–0.6 GB per day: maps from Blowing Point to the villa, the WhatsApp coordination with a beach restaurant, video calls home in the evening before dinner, the camera-translator on a French menu (the influence is strong this close to Saint Martin). Call it 0.4 GB/day:
| Trip length | Roamzy ($14.03/GB) | Tourist roaming pass | Cruise-ship Wi-Fi |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-day boat trip (0.4 GB) | $5.61 | — | $20–35 |
| 5 days (2 GB) | $28.06 | $30–80 | — |
| 10 days (4 GB) | $56.12 | $60–130 | — |
Competitor prices in columns 3 and 4 are 2025 ranges based on typical offerings; exact figures depend on your home carrier, your hotel, and your cruise line. Roamzy's rate in column 2 is our actual published rate from the pricing page.
Anguilla's rate is high because the island is small and wholesale telecoms have little scale. We don't disguise that. Day-trippers from Saint Martin save the most — the ferry doesn't sell SIMs, the eSIM is already attached when you land at Blowing Point.
Where does Roamzy work on the island?
The country is small enough that "regional coverage" mostly means "in the village or on the road":
- The Valley — 4G/LTE at 95%+, the administrative centre and where most coverage radiates from
- Shoal Bay East and Shoal Bay West — solid LTE on the developed beach, weaker at the eastern tip
- Meads Bay, Rendezvous Bay — fine along the resort line, intermittent at the back of the salt ponds
- Blowing Point ferry terminal — continuous LTE, the eSIM picks up from Saint Martin already attached
- Scrub Island and Prickly Pear (day-trip cays) — patchy 4G; on the boat it's mostly down
- Sandy Ground at night — the village has it, the dance floor at Johnno's is loud enough to make it irrelevant
How do I install my Roamzy eSIM?

What are Roamzy's honest limitations?
Three traps Roamzy doesn't have because they were never built in. No welcome promo that flips on the second top-up. No fine-print throttling. No auto-renewal you forgot to cancel after the beach week.
It's not a marketing gimmick — it's an engineering decision born from indifference to gimmicks. You can't make a tariff cheaper than no fine-print and no expiry — so we don't.
What if my trip continues to other countries?
Anguilla is rarely a single-island trip. The natural pairings:
- Saint Kitts and Nevis — short hop south, separate country rate
- British Virgin Islands — common sailing continuation through the Lesser Antilles
