If there’s one event that captures the easy rhythm of Caribbean life, it’s the Anegada Lobster Festival. From November 28–30, 2025, the “drowned island” becomes a lively hub for food lovers, music fans, and anyone who enjoys a weekend of pure liming. It’s the perfect excuse to pull on your favorite Limelife Co gear, kick back, and let the island set the pace.
Anegada may be just 28 feet above sea level, but it delivers a festival experience that stands tall. For three days, the island fills with travelers and locals ready to relax, explore, eat well, and enjoy life by the sea.
Anegada’s Famous Flavor Trail
The heart of the festival is the island-wide “treasure hunt” for lobster dishes. Restaurants across Anegada serve their best take on spiny lobster—from simple grilled portions served fresh off the fire to rich pastas, creamy chowders, and even lobster ice cream for the adventurous.
A few of the restaurants making waves on the trail include:
-
Anegada Beach Club: Right on the sand, this spot lets you dine under palapas while you nibble on lobster, conch, or even jerk chicken.
-
Big Bamboo: Nestled in Loblolly Bay under seagrape trees, Big Bamboo is one of the island’s favorite chill lunch spots. The lobster fritters or grilled lobster here feel like a reward after a morning of beach time.
-
Flash of Beauty: A bit quieter, tucked along the coast, this place serves fresh lobster and conch in local-style dishes.
-
The Wonky Dog: A local favorite, The Wonky Dog serves lobster Rockefeller, blackened snapper, and more in a relaxed, water’s edge setting.

And more!
Exploring Anegada is easy thanks to its flat landscape. Many visitors rent jeeps or scooters and hop from one beachside spot to another. Along the way, the views of turquoise water, quiet coves, and long stretches of white sand make it tempting to slow down and stay awhile. It’s the perfect backdrop for a weekend built around tasting, wandering, and enjoying the moment.
And for anyone who doesn’t eat lobster, there’s plenty more on the menu. Anegada’s fishing community keeps the island stocked with fresh snapper, mahi-mahi, conch, and other local seafood, all cooked with Caribbean warmth and charm.
Liming Through the Weekend
The festival isn’t only about the food — it’s about the vibe.
This is a weekend made for liming, that perfect mix of relaxing, chatting, sipping something cool, and forgetting about the clock.
Expect beach bars playing Soca, groups gathered in the shade telling stories, and visitors drifting from one spot to the next with no rush at all. It’s the kind of atmosphere where people arrive as strangers and leave feeling like old friends. Wearing Limelife Co just fits here, whether it’s a t-shirt, fanny pack, or a bikini: light, breezy, and made for salty air and slow, sunny days.
Music, Parties, and Island Energy
Throughout the festival, DJs and Soca artists perform at different venues around the island. Some stages are set right in the sand. Others pop up at beach bars or on boats cruising the coastline. Wherever the music is playing, you’ll find people dancing, laughing, and soaking up the energy that makes the Caribbean feel so alive.
It’s a fun mix of laid-back and lively. You can spend the morning eating lobster by a quiet beach, then jump into a late-afternoon party as the sun drops low and the sky turns pink.
Why the Festival Keeps Growing
After more than a decade, the Anegada Lobster Festival has become a beloved tradition. Locals open their restaurants and their culture to visitors, offering food made with pride and music meant to be shared. It’s a celebration of life on an island that doesn’t rush, doesn’t pretend, and doesn’t hold back on flavor.
If you’re dreaming of a weekend that blends great food, beautiful beaches, and that easy Caribbean liming spirit, mark your calendar and pack your favorite Limelife Co threads. Anegada is ready to welcome you with open arms, warm grills, and cold drinks waiting.
