　　Enjoy great views of Nevis across the Narrows on what is arguably St Kitts' best beach. This crescent of white powdery sand with calm, shallow waters and several bars, restaurants and water-sports outfits can get seriously crowded when the cruise ships visit, so it's best to go early, late or not at all when the big boys are in port.

Frigate Bay South
St Kitts & Nevis
　　In season, the party never stops along the Strip, a beach-shack-backed golden sweep of sand with mellow, kid-friendly waves, and bars that keep the party going long after dark. ...
Pinney’s Beach
St Kitts & Nevis
　　This 3-mile-long stretch of golden-gray sand along the west coast has decent snorkeling right offshore. The northern end is punctuated by the massive Four Seasons Resort and several beach bars, but quiet patches abound. Sundays are busiest. ...
Botanical Gardens of Nevis
St Kitts & Nevis
　　It's easy to spend a couple of hours wandering around this enchanting symphony of orchids, palms, water-lily ponds, bamboo groves and other global flora interspersed with sculpture, pools, ponds and fountains. In the Rainforest Conservatory parrots patrol the huge tropical plants, waterfalls and Mayan-style sculpture, while in the Great House...
Museum of Nevis History
St Kitts & Nevis
　　American statesman Alexander Hamilton (1757–1804) was many things in his short life: soldier, lawyer, author of the Federalist Papers, US founding father, the country’s first Secretary of the Treasury and, finally, the victim of a fatal duel with his political nemesis Aaron Burr. (He has since been reborn as the...
Wingfield Estate St Kitts
St Kitts & Nevis
　　Wingfield is one of the island's oldest sugar estates, founded in 1625 and in operation until all cane processing was centralized in Basseterre in the 1920s. Today it's a picturesque ruin with a partly restored mill, smoke stack, aqueduct, lime kiln and other structures, evoking the lives of slaves who...
Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park
St Kitts & Nevis
　　Even if you're not a fan of military installations, this massive hilltop compound with its citadels, bastions, barracks and ramparts will likely leave a lasting impression. The British began construction of what was then a state-of-the-art fortress in 1690 and, using slave labor, kept refining it for about a century....
Romney Manor
St Kitts & Nevis
　　A favorite pit stop on island tours, the former residence of the owners of the Wingfield Estate sugar plantation has since 1964 been the home of the Caribelle Batik workshop and store. Horticulturists will be in floral heaven in the surrounding gardens (note the 350-year-old saman tree), which also hide...
National Museum
St Kitts & Nevis
　　This modest museum is a good place to start your explorations of St Kitts. Displays deal with colonial history, the rise of the sugar industry, the road to independence, and local lifestyle and traditions. It’s housed in the 1894 Old Treasury Building, a stately pile built from hand-cut volcanic limestone....
Bloody Point
St Kitts & Nevis
　　In 1626 colonial settlements were expanding so quickly that the local Carib population felt threatened and decided to attack the invaders. In a rare and short-lived union, British and French troops set up a united front and attacked the Caribs first, killing some 2000 of them. Legend has it that...
Lovers Beach
St Kitts & Nevis
　　Curtained off by sea grapes, mile-long Lovers Beach charms with white sands and an untamed beauty. Its lack of facilities keeps it nearly deserted; currents and a steep drop make the water less suitable for kids or inexperienced swimmers. Between April and November, the beach is a turtle-nesting ground. 　　Park...
Circus
St Kitts & Nevis
　　The focus of town is the Circus, a roundabout apparently inspired by London’s Piccadilly Circus. Anchored by a green clock tower (the Victorian-style Berkeley Memorial Clock), it is surrounded by quaint buildings housing shops and banks. 　　The terrace of the Ballahoo restaurant is a great vantage point for people-watching. ...
