Luxury holidays in Nevis

When to go

Warm waters and even warmer temperatures make Nevis a year-round destination, though it’s worth visiting during the island’s Culturama Festival (late July to early August) which celebrates its rich cultural heritage.

Getting there

• Planes

  Flights with British Airways (www.britishairways.com), American Airlines (www.aa.com) and Delta (www.delta.com) fly into Robert L Bradshaw International Airport (SKB) on neighbouring St Kitts; from here take a ferry or water taxi to Nevis. Nevis is well connected to the USA and Caribbean Islands via smaller airlines and ferry services.

• Boats

  Fly into St Kitts and take a ferry or private water taxi for the scenic, 45-minute crossing to Nevis across the two-mile section known as the Narrows.

• Automobiles

  You can easily hail a taxi on the island, but to make the most of the rugged scenery and blissfully secluded location you’ll want to hire a car; you’ll find car-hire kiosks at the airport.
