St Kitts / Day Sails/Boat Trips
A popular day out is to take one of the catamaran cruises. These usually head for the leeward coastline of St Kitts’ South East Peninsula, first to one of the secluded bays for snorkelling and then for a sail across the Narrows to Nevis, where there is a barbecue on a beach. There is often an open bar on board.
Blue Water Safaris Ltd, Basseterre - Yachts include catamarans Irie Lime or Swaliga, which head to Shitten Bay for snorkelling and across to Nevis for lunch at Pinney’s Beach where you might opt to enjoy one of the notorious ‘Killer Bee’ cocktails at Sunshine’s Beach Bar. Every month there is a Full Moon cruise when you can take a daring night swim. Very lively, dinner and sunset cruises, snorkelling trips and private charters available. Blue Water Safaris also offer a half day kayaking trip with snorkelling in White House Bay, one of St Kitts secluded coves. You paddle along 2½ miles of the South East Peninsula in a self-bailing, sit-on-top ocean kayak, visiting remote bays and looking out for nesting sea birds, monkeys and sometimes turtles. The trip ends with a light beach picnic of local favourites where you will be offered local sweets such as tamarind balls and sugar cakes to go with fresh fruit juices and coconut water.
Leeward Island Charters, Basseterre - They have been operating catamaran cruises since 1980 and currently have two 70ft catamarans the Spirit of St Kitts and Eagle, which do the full day trip from St Kitts to Nevis. (They also operate Caona which does a similar trip from Nevis to St Kitts.)
