The St. Kitts railway is one of the most captivating and unique places in the Caribbean. The St Kitts railway was built between 1912 and 1926 to transport sugar cane from the beautiful Eastern Caribbean island of St. Kitts' sugar plantations to the sugar factory in the capital city of Basseterre.
Hugging the north-eastern coastline, you’ll experience spectacular views of sugar canes, to the volcanic cone of Mount Liamuiga rising above you. Today the “Last Railway in the West Indies” provides you with an unsurpassed opportunity to experience the scenery and culture of this unspoiled country. Whether you’re looking for an adventure or simply want to relax and enjoy the scenery, this historic line has something for everyone! As you travel, keep your eyes open for some of St.Kitts' diverse wildlife – from tropical birds to colourful butterflies – all amidst a picturesque backdrop of rolling hills and white sand beaches.
If you’re feeling brave why not take the plunge and try traversing the landscape with an off-road jeep? You can experience some of St. Kitts' oldest attractions up close and personal as well as explore locations that wouldn't be accessible by car or on foot.
No matter what kind of holiday you are after, discovering this railway will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on your heart! So if you’re looking for a unique way to experience St. Kitts then hop aboard the train and prepare yourself for one incredible journey!
