The Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis is an island nation in the Caribbean comprised of the islands of St Kitts and Nevis. It is part of the Leeward Islands in the Lesser Antilles of the Eastern Caribbean. St Kitts is also known as St Christopher. Nevis was originally named “Nuestra Señora de las Nieves” in Spanish which translates to “Our Lady of the Snows”. This refers to the white clouds that seem to permanently hover over Nevis Peak (the highest point on Nevis island). The Spanish name was eventually shortened to Nevis.
St Kitts and Nevis is known for its volcanic terrain, shimmering blue waters, lush greenery, and beautiful beaches. It also displays picturesque views of both the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. Mount Liamuiga and Nevis Peak are the highest peaks on the islands of St Kitts and Nevis respectively.
St Kitts and Nevis was inhabited by the Caribs before becoming colonized by the British and the French. The independent state is now a member of the Commonwealth with the English crown being represented by the Governor General.
St Kitts and Nevis is a member of the Commonwealth, Caribbean Community (CARICOM), Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS), Organization of American States (OAS), United Nations (UN), and World Trade Organization (WTO).
Charlestown, Nevis was the birthplace of US Founding Father and first Secretary of US Treasury, Alexander Hamilton. Read more on Alexander Hamilton here:
The capital of St Kitts and Nevis is Basseterre, located on the larger island of St Kitts. Basseterre is a French word which translates to low land in English.
Points of interest in St Kitts include the National Museum of St Kitts (old Treasury Building), Port Zante, Government Headquarters, Independence Square, The War Memorial, Government House, Berkeley Memorial, The Circus (inspired by Piccadilly Circus in London), Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB), and the Brimstone Hill Fortress. Phenomenal views of St Kitts and Nevis can be seen from the Timothy Hill Overlook.
The headquarters of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) is located in Basseterre, St Kitts and Nevis. The ECCB is the central bank of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) which share the Eastern Caribbean Dollar.
Catamaran Sail & Snorkel on St. Kitts - What to do on Your Day in Port
We were on a 7 day Southern Caribbean cruise on Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas when we stopped in the port of Basseterre, St. Kitts. We purchased this shore excursion onboard for $119 US. The name of the tour was Catamaran Fan-Ta-Sea to Nevis. Nevis is the neighboring island to St. Kitts. They took us through the shopping area of the port to another dock to board the catamaran.
We sailed first to the southern tip of St. Kitts to snorkel around the rusted wreck of a small ship.The water was very clear but there wasn't a whole lot to see. There were some very large schools of very small fish. We re-boarded the Catamaran and sailed on to Nevis.
On Nevis they put out a lunch for us on the beach. We had about an hour to walk around or swim. We went down the beach a short distance to the Four Seasons Resort. The beach was OK. The sand there is grey because it is volcanic I think. There are a lot of shell on the beach.
We left Nevis and headed back to the ship. We laid on the netting above the ocean at the front of the catamaran for most of the tour. On the way back we both dozed off only to be awakened when the waves started to break over the bough.
This was one of our favorite tours ever. Many times on sailing tours, they don't use the sails. We went on one in Mykonos, Greece that didn't. When I asked the captain if he was going to hoist the sails he said maybe next time, Ha Ha Ha. Port Monkeys highly recommend this tour.
By the way, you could possibly purchase this tour privately onshore from Blue Water Safaris for less money.

Marella Celebration Visits Basseterre, St. Kitts and Nevis
Shots from around Basseterre harbour area and Frigate Bay beach ..
St. Kitts is one of the Caribbean's jewels and once was a thriving sugar colony, it now brings in money by being a well visited tropical paradise. It has many blonde sandy beaches and stunning turquoise coloured sea.
ABOUT THE SHIP ..
Marella Celebration is the smallest ship in the fleet, which guarantees a cosy feel. What it lacks in size, though, it makes up for in facilities. We’re talking two pools, a premium coffee shop and a Broadway Show Lounge. Mealtimes are a treat here, too. Take your pick from three sophisticated speciality restaurants and six bars. For quiet drinks with sweeping waterfront views, head to Horizons on Deck 9. Or, if you’re after some R&R, treat yourself to a facial in the spa.
