St Kitts has long been overlooked for its better-known neighbours, but it has a lot going for it: a green volcanic interior, a narrow-gauge railway built for the sugar cane, and Brimstone Hill Fortress, one of the best-preserved fortresses in the Americas.
The south-east peninsula is home to a new generation of hotels, and Nevis is just across the water.
where to go
The small capital, with the Circus, Independence Square and a busy market.
A UNESCO-listed fortress with views over the Caribbean.
A narrated train ride around the island on the old sugar line.
A dormant volcano with a guided hike through rainforest to the crater rim.
A marina and beaches on the quieter south-east peninsula.
Gardens and batik workshops on an old estate.
when to go
St Kitts is warm all year, with the driest weather from December to April.
December to April
Dry and sunny, with cooling trade winds. The busiest season.
May to July
Warm and calm, with the St Kitts Music Festival in June.
August to October
The wettest months and the highest risk of storms. Quiet and good value, though some hotels close for a few weeks.
