Why I love St Kitts beaches (and you will too)

One of the primary reasons people choose to holiday in the Caribbean is the beautiful beaches, and this is where St Kitts wins hands down. It has something a lot of the other islands don't have, and that's diversity.

The beaches here range from soft golden sand which are primary found around the south-east peninsula, to the more unusual black grey sand which dominate the north and south western coastlines. You'll find the Atlantic sea on the Windward side the island, and the Caribbean sea on the Leeward side. Some developments such as Oceans Edge in Frigate Bay are perfectly placed to take advantage of both the Atlantic and Caribbean Sea, as they are just a few minutes’ walk from the resort. It's located on the south-eastern peninsula so the beaches here are golden sand.

There has been a lot of debate about the beach at North Frigate Bay, as some say it's one of the most scenic of all the beaches in St Kitts, and it's certainly one of my favourites. It's located on the Windward side of the island and is great for those who enjoy windsurfing or swimming in slightly more challenging waters. The long golden stretch of beach is ideal for walking and relaxing.

A close contender for best beach in St Kitts is South Frigate Bay, where the calm waters are perfect for swimming. Tourists visiting this beach can just relax, swim, snorkel and generally chill out. Other good beaches include Friars Bay, Cockleshell Bay and Banana Bay, but really the list is endless and you'll just have to come and see for yourself.
