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.
