Charlestown is the main town on Nevis, the quieter sister island to St. Kitts, reached by a short ferry or boat transfer from most itineraries that call here. It's a smaller, slower-paced stop than many Caribbean ports, with a historic town center and a dormant volcano, Nevis Peak, dominating the skyline.

Things To Do in Charlestown, St. Kitts-Nevis

Make the most of your time ashore.

Hiking Nevis Peak is the island's signature activity for anyone reasonably fit — it's a genuine rainforest climb, not a paved path — while the Botanical Gardens of Nevis offer a gentler way to see the island's plant life. Charlestown itself has a handful of historic sites, including the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton, within easy walking distance of the pier. Nevis's beaches tend to be quieter than St. Kitts', which suits visitors looking to avoid crowds more than those looking for beach bars.
