Find What You’re Looking For in St. Kitts and Nevis
By Caitlin Moore
Thanks to long ago volcanic activity, the Caribbean Sea is sprinkled
with handfuls of now-settled islands that act as magnets to tourists
looking for the ultimate getaway experience. There are many choices,
few of them regrettable, but if a quiet and nature-oriented escape
from reality is desired, you certainly wouldn’t go wrong with a trip to St.
Kitts and Nevis, a pair of islands that maintains a French/English
identity as well as many unspoiled swaths of wilderness.
British-style buildings and cars that drive on the left side of the road
will immediately help to create a sense of away-ness, and the interior
of the islands are delightfully uninhabited – an exotic treat for city
dwellers and residents of sprawling suburbia. Combine these
elements with a predictably pleasant climate and constant cycle of
sea breezes and the foundation has been laid for a top-five vacation.
Some say that St. Kitts and Nevis resemble a baseball bat and
baseball, something to notice when flying in for a landing or looking
at a map but a fact that will be forgotten once you’ve become
immersed in the pure loveliness of the landscape. A narrow channel
separates the two isles, making going back and forth no big deal, so
every inch of the terrain, both untouched and populated, is available to
be explored and enjoyed.
All the standard beach activities are up for grabs, although the word
“standard” doesn’t really apply to snorkeling, sea kayaking, relaxing at
a beach bar or watching for rainbows and sunsets off the pristine
coast. Timothy Beach is a popular spot for finding the activities you
need to check a few entries off the itinerary, and if you don’t have one
of those, you’ll wander your way through a perfectly agreeable day.
After getting your fill of being barefoot, it’ll be time to head to one of the
towns for some shopping and fine dining. Try Basseterre,
Charlestown or Newcastle for a taste of local cuisine, shopping and
culture seeking.
Or, if seeking out a few thrills is on the menu, head inland to sneak a
peek at the impressive array of flora and fauna. In addition to colorful
and fragrant plant life unlike any you’ve seen before, the flitting
hummingbirds and friendly monkeys will most certainly catch your
eye. A few tidbits of fruit will entice the furry creatures to come close,
offering up photo-ops that will make the perfect souvenir. Mountain
rainforest hikes provide exercise, fresh air and enjoyable off-the-
beaten-path moments, so check them out if you’re so inclined.
St. Kitts and Nevis is adept at offering a bit of everything; quiet
afternoons and thrilling adventures, deserted stretches of beach and
lively festivals. A number of music celebrations dot the calendar and
often feature parades with salsa, calypso and steel pan infusions,
while tennis courts and golf courses provide more traditional vacation
pursuits. No matter what you and your companions look for on
holiday (as the Brits would say) it’s certain to be contained within the
perimeter of this charming island nation.
This includes stellar lodging options in the form of dozens of vacation
rental properties that have a way of making visitors feel immediately
at home in this far-flung tropical paradise. Villas offering panoramic
views and easy access to the beach make all the difference when it
comes to you and your companions coexisting peacefully while
feeling comfortable and connected to the surroundings. A day of
swimming and snorkeling can be just a stroll away, as are horseback
riding stables, one of the vibrant towns, a fabulous restaurant or an
engrossing view of Mt. Nevis. Sorting through the options online is a
fun exercise that will certainly lead to inventing the perfect scenario
framed by hibiscus and bougainvillea, not to mention a set-up of
bedrooms, baths and grounds that will lend an air of elegance and
luxury to the whole affair.
St. Kitts and Nevis Vacation Rentals are available in multiple
locations and come in all shape and size – large condos, diminutive
bungalows, vast villas, etc… Most come equipped with a plethora of
helpful amenities like kitchens and extra towels and linens, and most
are pretty easy on the eyes. Take a look at the options and allow
yourself to start getting excited for an upcoming trip that’s sure to be
one of your best ever.
