OF THE BEST
St Kitts activities
Rail: Ride the St Kitts Scenic Railway, a double- decker train that offers a beautiful backdrop on the three-hour round-island journey. The narrow-gauge train travels 18 miles along a route first used in 1912 to transport sugar cane from plantations to Basseterre.
History: Brimstone Hill Fortress, a Unesco World Heritage Site, is one of the Caribbean’s largest and best-preserved fortifications. It was built between the 1690s and 1790s by enslaved Africans, and became a key site of battles between the French and British as European powers fought for control over the islands.
Beach: For a lively beach scene, Frigate Bay is popular with locals and visitors alike, with calm Caribbean waters on one side and Atlantic waves for surfers on the other. Expect beach bars and volleyball by day, then DJ beats and bonfires by night.
everything from spacious ocean-view rooms for couples to lavish two-level estates such as Mahogany Hill, which can host groups of up to 12. The service is attentive, the restaurants consistently deliver exceptional dining and the grounds are immaculately maintained.
GOING FURTHER What sets St Kitts and Nevis apart is how well the high-end resorts combine with island experiences. For those who prefer to sightsee by sea, a sunset catamaran cruise with Blue Water Safaris is popular (from $62). Over two
hours, guests sip cocktails and enjoy light bites while the crew point out landmarks along the coast and views of neighbouring Nevis. For music lovers, the three-day St Kitts Music
Festival is one of the island’s most immersive and lively experiences. Running for nearly 30 years, past performers have included Jamaican DJ Vybz Kartel and American singer Jennifer Hudson, with a line-up that blends reggae, soca, hip-hop and R&B into a celebration of Caribbean culture and international talent. The culinary scene is similarly diverse.
