Rich Tapestry of History
Learn more about the rich culture and history found on these twin islands during your St Kitts and Nevis yacht charter. The capital city of St Kitts, Basseterre, features several historical sites and architectural wonders dating back to the 16th-century, like the Independence Square and the Circus, worth visiting in person.
