Nevis History & Culture
Intrepid Carib Indians, who travelled from South America, were the first to settle on the island, which was called ‘Oualie’ at the time. These settlers peacefully appreciated the island’s natural beauty and resources, until the Europeans arrived in the late 1400s and used the island regularly as a point of reference during voyages – naming the location Nevis.
Today, Nevis continues to celebrate its rich history and culture through a series of events that take place throughout the year, allowing visitors and locals alike to celebrate the food, the people and the natural elements of the island, from swims, runs and agriculture tours, to cooking festivals and music events.
