Located in the Eastern Caribbean Sea near the Atlantic Ocean, the island of St. Kitts has developed into a great vacation destination that is known for its world-class snorkeling, white sand beaches, water sports, and safari opportunities. St. Kitts, also known as Saint Christopher Island, is the largest island in the nation of St. Kitts and Nevis. With a rich history shaped by the French, Spanish, and British, St. Kitts offers a mix of Caribbean charm and European influence for a unique island vacation.
The capital city of Basseterre serves as a gateway to the island's rich history and beautiful beaches. Nearby Romney Manor, Fairview Great House and Botanical Gardens, and the Wingfield Estate sugar cane plantation are great sightseeing destinations for history buffs, while Frigate Bay offers ample water sports, beach bar, and dining opportunities. Port Zante serves as Basseterre's port of call and a great place to hop on a catamaran island tour.
Nature lovers will enjoy St. Kitts' multiple national parks, including Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park. You won't want to miss Cockleshell Bay's white sand beaches or Mount Liamuiga, a remarkable volcano. Pay a visit to Saint Kitts' southeast peninsula, which is home to the stunning Timothy Hill Overlook and South Friars Bay, for an unforgettable half-day trip.
