With more than a quarter of the island set aside as a national park and a rainforest that is growing rather than shrinking, St. Kitts is a stunning tropical island escape. Soar through the Valley of the Giants on a thrilling zip line, hike to Sofa Rock, which is the cap of a still smoldering volcano, or simply spend the day relaxing on one of the many beaches protected by major coral reefs. Enjoy fresh seafood and seasonal fruits like soursop and mammy apples. Additionally, St. Kitts offers duty-free shopping and is an excellent place to find copperware, local beer and rum and embroidery fabrics.
