Destinations / Caribbean

St. Kitts offers the ideal winter getaway for family travelers, combining adventure, relaxation and culture in one trip. The destination offers pleasant weather, scenic beaches and plenty of activities for travelers of all ages.

 

What can families do in St. Kitts?

  • Ride Kitts Scenic Railway, one of the last operational railways in the Caribbean. During the ride, enjoy stunning views of the coastline and rainforest.
  • Visit Liamuiga Natural Farms to pick tropical fruits straight from the trees and see an example of the region’s sustainable agriculture.
  • Hike Mount Liamuiga, the island’s dormant volcano, or zip line through the rainforest canopy.
  • Snorkel and kayak around the island’s clear waters.
  • Relax and swim at South Friars Bay, which offers calm, shallow waters, perfect for younger swimmers.
  • Spend the day at Cockleshell Beach to paddleboard or lounge on the beach. There is also a beach bar for parents to unwind with a cocktail.
  • Explore Brimstone Hill Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site with interactive exhibits and stunning views.
  • Wander through the markets and historic streets of Basseterre.

 

While there, stay at a family-friendly resort such as Park Hyatt St. Kitts or St. Kitts Marriott Resort. Both offer family packages, kids’ clubs and beach activities.

Ideas for Skip-Gen Trips

Traveling with a grandchild is a priceless opportunity to develop your own special relationship with them. Shared experiences create a strong bond between grandparents and grandchildren, and those experiences will become lasting shared memories.

Best of Both Worlds

Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from  Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.
