St. Kitts, along with sister island Nevis, make up the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis. In common with many islands in the Caribbean, sugar was the number one industry but tourism has come into its own in recent years. Nevis may have a more established tourist sector with St. Kitts playing catch-up, but it’s making up ground gracefully, with well planned, small-scale developments that are not marring the beauty of this lush, tropical island.
St. Kitts is a small island – it takes just 40 minutes to drive around it – but there is plenty to see and do. There are tours through the tropical forests and lava formations, while bobbing along on a boat tour through the Caribbean Sea is a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours. St. Kitts is gaining a reputation as a dive destination too. Divers are starting to take cheap flights to St. Kitts in greater and greater numbers to explore the reefs and shipwrecks off its shores.
Basseterre is the capital, with a cool, quaint vibe and beautiful Colonial architecture. It’s also where you can catch the ferry to Nevis, a 45-minute journey. South Frigate Bay, southeast of Basseterre, is where Kittitians go to kick back or lime on the weekend.
For vacationers keen to forget about work for a while, St. Kitts beaches are the place to relax. The south of the island has the best beaches – Cockleshell Bay has soft, soft white sand and killer views of Nevis. On the north of the island, the beaches are volcanic with black and gray sand and usually bigger surf. Belle Tete in Sandy Point and Dieppe Bay beach are the best of these and at Dieppe Bay you can also see where the Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean.
