You can drive all around the island of st Kitts in two hours? It is quite a small island not very hilly, like St Lucia or St Thomas. You know you can go zip-lining in the forest? You can walk up the fortress at Brimstone Hill National Park. Take a train ride to scope out the magnificent views of the island? The beaches are lovely, but there are so many other things to do and see. The island has an Atlantic Ocean side and a Caribbean Sea side? Waters are notoriously calmer and clearer on the Caribbean side. This island is also nicknamed 'monkey island' because there are so many green monkeys. They have been on the island for more than 300 years, apparently. Sometimes they even raid local beach bars for cocktails for they have good fun and never get drink! St. Kitts and Nevis was once known as the Gibraltar of the West Indies. Its volcanic vantage point offering lines of sight to nearby Nevis, St. Eustatius, and Saba.
