St. Kitts Information and Links
St. Kitts is like no other island in the Caribbean. It embodies the kind of lush tropical paradise usually associated with the South Pacific and boasts a friendly hospitality that attracts visitors year after year. The atmosphere is both palpably luxuriant and equally unassuming. It is an intoxicating blend of sunlight, sea, air, and abundant vegetation. Christopher Columbus first spotted St. Kitts in 1493, when it was populated with native tribes, but the Europeans did not colonize the island until the British arrived in 1623.
While development has been of the highest quality, it has fortunately remained in low quantity, so St. Kitts remains un-crowded and unspoiled, famous around the world for excellent preservation of the ecosystems. Nature lovers will want to take advantage of the various tours through lava formations, tropical forest areas, and seaside lagoons. Boating tours and scuba diving expeditions are also favorite activities. Plantation homes have been transformed into grand, intimate inns. Quaint shopping areas and beautiful Colonial architecture draw visitors to the tiny towns. St. Kitts has something for everyone. Whether you enjoy relaxing poolside, sitting by the sea, biking, waterskiing, snorkeling, scuba diving, horseback riding, or a myriad of other activities - you'll find it here in St. Kitts!
