Separated by a two-mile channel, St. Kitts (officially named St. Christopher) and Nevis are in the northern part of the Leeward Islands in the Eastern Caribbean. St. Kitts covers 68 square miles, while Nevis -- which is to the south east of St. Kitts -- is 36 square miles. St. Kitts is a stunning combination of volcanic mountains, rain forests and beautiful beaches. Although St. Kitts is known as a quiet and tranquil island, its capital -- Basseterre -- is in the midst of a revival. In addition to restored historical architecture, Basseterre also boasts a selection of new shops and charming cafes. Nevis is known for its natural beauty, genteel plantations, quiet hospitality and pristine beaches. Nevis' capital -- Charlestown -- is a well-preserved old Caribbean town offering visitors interesting shopping and dining.
