Can you see the best of St Kitts AND still enjoy the beach in one cruise day? On Day 5 of our Eastern Caribbean cruise aboard the Allure of the Seas, we arrive in St Kitts and Nevis for the very first time. Like many cruisers, we were tempted to head straight for the beach… but we also didn’t want to miss the island’s most famous sights. So we decided to try something different. With just a day in port at Basseterre, we hired a private driver to see if we could do both — explore the island’s highlights and still make it to the beach. But is it actually possible? Join us as we: • Explore the incredible Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park. • Stop by a hidden coastal shipwreck near the fortress • Visit Romney Manor and discover traditional batik craftsmanship • Take in breathtaking views from Timothy Hill, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea • Relax at South Friars Bay with calm waters, snorkelling, and a well-earned drink • Wander through Basseterre’s highlights, including Independence Square, The Circus, and the cathedral 0:00 Intro 3:12 Brimstone Hill Fortress 7:05 Rommney Manor 10:32 Timothy Hill Lookout 11:03 South Friars Beach 12:27 Basseterre
