To have a 360 degree experience of St. Kitts - the Caribbean's crown jewel - is to partake of paradise from a natural, cultural, historical and contemporary standpoint. In the heart of Basseterre you will see the former slave market (originally known as Pall Mall Square and now known as Independence Square) surrounded by some of the best preserved British and French colonial architecture in the entire Caribbean.

Smiling Kenny will also explain to you the significance of the Berkeley Memorial and point out the St. Kitts National Museum, mere minutes away. Following that, a trip to the home of the local batik handicraft facility is in order. Moving ever onward, you will drive through Middle Island - home of the first Anglican church on St. Kitts and the burial site of English explorer and settler Sir Thomas Warner, before passing by Brimstone Hill - the Gibraltar of the West Indies and a UNESCO World Heritage site.

A stop at the Gibbons Hill lookout affords you the rare chance to witness the furious dance that takes place when the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean meet. Finally, on either South Friar's or Cockleshell beach.
