Basseterre cruises, St Kitts and Nevis

What's great about Basseterre cruises?

St Kitts started out as a sugar colony. Now, it’s a tropical paradise known for spots like Turtle Beach – a snorkelling haven with blonde sands and duck-egg blue seas. Away from the shores, you’ll find plenty of historic sights to tick off. Or, take a short trip over The Narrows channel to visit the neighbouring island of Nevis.

  • Hop on the St Kitts Railway to chug over ravines 300-feet-deep, circle Mount Liamuiga volcano and take a sneak peek at the island’s black-sand beaches.
  • Gaze out at sugarcane fields from Brimstone Hill Fortress. It was abandoned in 1850, and has since been restored to show off cannons and swords.
  • Toast your Caribbean escape at the Carambola Beach Club. It’s one of the island’s most popular sunbathing spots, known for its lively atmosphere.
