Explore Paradise
Visitors love the landscape. Omnipresent flowers, lush vegetation, volcanic mountains, rain forests and cane fields. All perfectly offset by fine British Colonial architecture in St. Kitts, the more bustling of this two-island nation. The island's capital city of Basseterre (pronounced 'Bass-tear') is an architectural jewel, one of the best preserved 18th century towns in the Caribbean. The island of St. Kitts is an island of villages, linked together by a single road that circumvents the island, tucked around deep gorges or ghauts as they are called on the island. Some are nestled along the seacoast.

St. Kitts is without a doubt a beautiful island, covered with fields of verdant sugar cane, and hillsides leading up towards the peak of volcano Mount Liamuiga; the largest peak (3,792 ft.) in the mountain range.

Carnival
St. Kitts is a beautiful, agricultural island, which gives the impression that it's peaceful and calm. However, people here like to party, and they really strut their stuff each year during the annual Carnival, held each year over the Christmas holidays.This traditional Caribbean festivity, marked by dancing in the streets, masquerade dancers, and parades in which everybody gets dressed up for the occasion, is a true look at island culture. Days become nights, and nights blend into the days, and no one knows the difference. It's party time.These street festivals usually include steel pan bands and mockojumbies, an old African tradition of dancing on stilts, dressed in colorful outfits to drive away evil spirits. Many Caribbean people travel between islands at Carnival time, so it's important to make reservations early if traveling during this time.
