Lying just 30 minutes by air northwest of Antigua, St Kitts and neighbouring island Nevis offer pristine shores and colonial heritage in abundance. It’s the air of tranquility that makes these islands so special, and yet there’s so much to do here for the eco-conscious. Scenic hiking trails lead you through acres of St Kitt’s lush Wingfield-Phillips rainforest and to Mount Liamuiga volcano’s hot springs for a relaxing soak. Maintain a gentle footprint and you may see monkeys, mongoose, lizards and colourful birds. Cycling, horseback riding and water-based activities such as sailing and snorkelling are recommended on both islands too.
