BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – St. Kitts continues to rake in accolades internationally.
MSNBC.com has just listed St. Kitts as one of the “5 Caribbean islands to discover now.”
It mentions the island’s history, culture and plantation inns as top reasons visit.
“Best for: History buffs and animal-lovers (vervet monkeys hang around some beaches). Long in the shadow of pricier Nevis, St. Kitts is home to a thriving West Indian culture and remarkably preserved architecture. A few 17th-century plantation homes have been converted to inns,” said MSNBC.com, which showed three photos of The Strip at Frigate Bay, Brimstone Hill and Cockleshell Bay.
St. Kitts was recently named one of the “Top 12 Spots that should be on your list for 2012” by Caribbean Travel + Life magazine.
St. Kitts’ Brimstone Hill National Fortress was named one of “10 Great Places to Explore The World’s Best-Kept Secrets” by USA Today.
