Vacation Highlight Editor's Choice

Visiting an island should be adventurous so why not engage in adventure! We agree, resting is important, but we're talking about after you've rested, to get that badly needed adrenaline rush. We have some ideas. How about experiencing a parasail flight or jetski race, or how about learning a new sport like kitesurfing. All the above can be achieved at St. Kitts Watersports. Speak to Jeff or Sandy.

Enjoy your stay!

Coolest Caribbean Tip of the Day

In need of sunscreen? Consider a local, natural type. Coconut Oil is said to be very healthy for your skin (and hair), and has sun protection properties. But if you're planning on staying in the sun for longer than 30 minutes we suggest you wear a rash-guard, a hat, sunglasses and stay in the shade. If that's not an option consider applying a generous amount of high SPF organic sunscreen you get at most health stores in the Caribbean.
