Nestled in the heart of the sun-drenched Lesser Antilles, just two miles from its sister island of St. Kitts, Nevis is a serene Caribbean paradise. Sculpted on volcanic hills and dotted with natural hot springs, the island offers a tranquil escape with only a handful of hotels spread across its 35 square miles. Visitors can explore untouched beaches, lush rainforests, and mango trees bursting with ripe fruit—perfect for food lovers, especially during the annual Nevis Mango and Food Festival.

Nevis is also earning a reputation as the “Island of Sport,” hosting thrilling events like the Nevis to St. Kitts Cross Channel Swim, the Nevis Running Festival, the Nevis Triathlon, the Quallie Beach Fishing Tournament, and even lively horse-racing events. Whether for adventure, culture, or relaxation, Nevis offers an authentic Caribbean experience like no other.

Things To Do In Nevis

Nightlife

The laid-back atmosphere of the island is reflected in its relaxed nightlife. Dine at the water’s edge in local restaurants like the Gin Trap before enjoying a sundowner or two as the sun begins to set. The hotels then provide further entertainment with live music, dancing and a beach BBQ or two, or you can simply head out and find a local beach bar for a drink and a friendly gossip with the locals.

Dining

The beach bars and grills that line some of the most peaceful beaches in the Caribbean combine a relaxed atmosphere and amazing views with succulent food, including fresh fish, Caribbean cuisine and international food originating from further afield. The classic West Indian goat water stew, Johnny cakes, swordfish and soursop juice are all served up at Rodney’s Cuisine, while at Bananas, hidden among the lush tropical gardens of the historic Hamilton Estate, you can enjoy creative Caribbean dishes and a selection of old rums while reclined on comfortable day beds.
