5 Fun Things You Have To Do In Nevis

Situated in the heart of the Caribbean is a charming little island called Nevis. The island boasts much more than pristine beaches, although the beaches there are quite spectacular. The overwhelming charm of Nevis has so many dimensions it will prove to be not just interesting, but totally captivating, especially for first-time visitors.
Here are a few ideas for filling your days in Nevis:
1. Take a Nevis Island Tour
Better still, customise the experience! You can actually hire a taxi or car service that will give you a full island tour at a flat rate. The drivers are all locals overflowing with pride in the paradise they call home. Ask about some of the must-see sites and they will make sure you get there.
If you prefer a maritime touring experience, rent a kayak or take a kayak tour. Expert guides are available to guide paddlers of all ages and skill levels. They can even let you know where the best diving spots are along the way.
2. Take in the Local Culture
Nevis has a law that states that no building on the island can exceed the height of the surrounding palm trees. No, we aren’t kidding. Take a stroll through Charlestown, the capital of Nevis and enjoy some of the local cuisine along with the many quaint shops you will discover along the way. The perfect souvenir is waiting for you!
On Saturdays, plan to visit Nevis’ local market and stop at Vic’s Bar for a fruity island cocktail and a round of dominoes with one of the locals. For a unique souvenir or gift idea, the Newcastle Pottery Center offers artisan pottery pieces fired in coconut husks.
3. Explore Nevis’ Rich History
See the childhood home of Alexander Hamilton and explore the ruins of an abandoned 19th-Century sugar cane mill. At one time, Nevis was a hub of industry in the sugar cane business. You can even learn more about both when you pay a visit to the Nevis History Museum, located in Charlestown. Round out your historical tour of the island with a visit to the Montpelier Estate and take afternoon tea on the spot where Horatio Nelson got married back in 1787.
4. Have an Undersea Adventure
Nevis boasts nearly 40 dive sites where divers can explore some magnificent caverns and reefs, and encounter an array of friendly ocean-dwelling creatures up close. The sea turtles will fast become your favourites.
5. Meet Rare Monkeys
Nevis is home to a curious species of monkey called the vervet. These island natives have black faces and silver bodies and are very social. They even have their own distinct language! They add a whole new dimension to the experience of the island, and are the subject of several guided tours.
