0:03
first cited by Christopher Columbus in
0:07
1493 the British and French fought over
0:09
this beautiful island of St kits for
0:11
centuries until 1983 it became fully
0:16
independent today an endless stream of
0:19
cruise ships like the celebrity
0:21
reflection and the Queen Mary 2 are
0:23
welcomed at Port Zante in the capital of
0:26
baser at a simple but well-located dock
0:30
cruising is now the key source of
0:32
revenue for this island since the
0:34
collapse of the St kits sugar
0:39
industry today s kits is all about
0:43
tourism and cruise passengers stepping
0:45
off the cruise ship have a short walk to
0:49
bastier here the tourist board and a
0:52
taxi rank will help you plan your trip
0:55
to one of the most stunning beaches you
0:57
can possibly find in the world
1:00
getting to one of the stunning beaches
1:02
will only cost you around $7 per person
1:07
this is my favorite Beach South Fri
1:09
Beach it's quiet with soft sand good
1:12
swimming and great snorkling other
1:15
popular beaches include South R Bay and
1:18
turtle and cocko shell
1:21
Bay many of the beaches will have rocky
1:23
reefs with sea oin so wearing Rober Sal
1:25
shoes or only swimming in safe Mark
1:27
areas is important the higher of a chair
1:31
an umbrella will only cost you around
1:32
$10 for the day as you can see the seas
1:36
are calm soothing and Incredibly
1:40
inviting most of the beaches will have
1:42
beach bars like this the Shipwreck bar
1:44
at South friers serving cajun chicken
1:47
burgers and drinks again very reasonably
1:50
priced and all priced in US Dollars
1:53
visiting the beach is my absolute top
1:55
tip for any trip to S KET the beaches
2:00
calm beautiful and very
2:05
inviting after the beach it's worth
2:08
spending some time exploring bastier
2:10
starting with the old part of town at
2:13
times it can be a bit grubby but always
2:15
vibrant this is the famous circus Square
2:18
where roads with British Heritage and
2:20
tradition like Liverpool Road fought and
2:23
Bank Street Lead off it spend time
2:32
close to where the ship stock is the
2:33
more modern and less authentic and
2:35
traditional Duty and taxfree shopping
2:38
malls shops like diamonds International
2:40
Effy Jewelers and various gift shops
2:42
dominate locals will occasionally put up
2:45
some traditional carab Indian dancing
3:01
the shops are handy for Port Sante and
3:04
it's a short walk back to your
3:16
ship and so after a morning at the beach
3:19
and an afternoon shopping it's time for
3:23
depart and head for the next island in
3:49
won kits may only be 61 Mi long and 23
3:52
Mi wide and have more monkeys Than
3:54
People it is one of my most favorite
3:57
Caribbean islands it's beautiful with
3:59
incredible beaches and stunning scenery
