St Kitts Diving Holiday
Dive Sportif
St Kitts

Intoxicating natural beauty, sunny skies, warm waters and white sandy beaches combine to make St. Kitts one of the most seductive spots in the Caribbean. Christopher Columbus first spotted St. Kitts in 1493. Later, the growth of the sugar trade led to an advanced and luxurious development that is among the best in the Colonial Caribbean. Spectacular Mount Liamigua, a dormant volcano located at the island's centre, dominates the landscape. While you hike through the dense tropical forest of the central slopes and tramp across the lava formations, the natural wonders on St Kitts will astound you. Home to the Federation's capital city, Basseterre, St Kitts is known for its well-preserved, attractive colonial architecture. In fact, Basseterre is one of the most picturesque colonial settlements in the entire Caribbean. Due to the number of sunken vessels, virgin reefs and other submerged natural wonders, dive enthusiasts are now discovering that, in St. Kitts, beauty runs deep. Most of the dive sites are on the protected Caribbean side of the island. The seas tend to be small with no swell of the Atlantic and very little if any current. Here the reefs and wrecks begin in shallow water and fall off to depths of 30m or more with areas of extensive fish life and formations for exploration.
