St Kitts and Nevis is a 2-island nation between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, offering a fine mix of natural beauty and vibrant history. Hopping between the 2 volcanic islands is a breeze thanks to a daily ferry service that runs across a shallow strait known as The Narrows.
The capital, Basseterre, is the hive of activity on St Kitts. However, you can discover many sleepy towns and villages overlooking hidden bays or hidden up on the volcanic slopes. There’s a wealth of beaches across St Kitts and Nevis – either featuring white powdery sand or exotic black volcanic shores. Many lush hills on both islands feature magnificent old fortresses, which you can visit for excellent panoramas. St Kitts has a historic and scenic railway you can ride, while Nevis Peak can treat you to soothing moments with its therapeutic thermal springs.
