| Summary |
The Caribbean island of St. Kitts offers peace, relaxation, and good food while exploring native customs and learning about native textiles. Here you will find adventures for everyone: there is a rainforest to tour, and for history buffs there is Brimstone Hill, a UNESCO World Heritage Site of historical, cultural, and architectural significance. It is a monument to the British engineers who designed it and the African slaves who built it. Also on St. Kitts is Romney Manor, a 17th century estate, now home to Caribelle Batik, a company that designs and produces this native fabric. Using the finest cotton, the handmade design is created by a technique using oil and wax, and each fabric is unique. The island of Nevis is only a ferry ride from St. Kitts, and it is famous for its white beaches and warm ocean water, making snorkeling, scuba diving, and other water sports very popular. Tourists can stay at historic plantation homes like the Hermitage Inn and Ocean Terrace Inn and learn more about the native culture. The Cayman Islands have some of the best beaches in the world, and visitors can tour the bottom of the ocean aboard the 28-passenger ship Atlantis 1 |
