If you have a cruise to St. Kitts, here are some pictures you may want to take near the cruise port!
St. Kitts is one of those Caribbean islands that you can see the hills immediately upon sailing into the cruise port. This makes for an amazing backdrop for your pictures!
This means that you’ll want to make sure to walk around the open deck of the cruise ship once you do get to St. Kitts. Try to do so before you leave for your St. Kitts excursion in the morning, and then once again when you get back from your tour in the afternoon. The angle of the sun can make a difference in how your pictures turn out.
For your St. Kitts excursion, here are ideas with some of the best activities in St. Kitts.

Iconic Port Zante
Port Zante is where your starting point is for your cruise to St. Kitts, and you’ll see the iconic structure of the Port Zante entry that you can get from different angles. That includes when you’re on the cruise ship, and when you get off for your St. Kitts excursion!
Shopping near cruise port

Now, this isn’t one of those “must-do” things in St. Kitts, but!
If you have an hour or two to spare after you get back from your main St. Kitts excursion or tour, you may consider heading back out onto the island after you’ve dropped off any extra things you were carrying. Maximize your time in port! It’s not every day that you’re on a cruise to St. Kitts!
Or…
If you splurged on shore excursions at another port during your Caribbean cruise and want to take it easy in St. Kitts, this walk can give you a chance to do so.
There’s a sidewalk along the coast of St. Kitts near the cruise port that you can follow that will give you a nice walk with that laid back Caribbean vibe. You’ll just feel it!
So, as long as you have your walking shoes on, you are good to go! 😉
As you are walking away from the St. Kitts cruise port, head along the coastal path to the left. You really can go either way, right or left, but if you have to pick, go left! Or, if you have time, go in both directions! 😉
This is walking off to the right along the St. Kitts coast…

🐠 Here are things you must consider packing!
- Swimsuit or swimming shirt aka rash guard
- rash guard: swim set for women and swim shirt for men
- Water shoes
- Waterproof phone case (so you can capture pictures of fishies underwater!)
- cheapo phone case OR waterproof camera
- I also have this "camera" wrist float to attach to my cheapo waterproof phone case so my phone won't sink to the bottom of the ocean in case I somehow let go of it. (Mine does stay afloat - test this for yourself before completely trusting it!)
- Swimming goggles or snorkeling mask set
- Reef-safe(r) sunscreen
- lightweight travel towel:
- walking sandals:
I also don't go snorkeling without a personal swim float buoy. Not only does it help to keep me visible, but it makes for a perfect way to rest out in deeper water! Oh, and it also serves as a dry bag so I can take stuff into the water with me.
Another way I have taken valuables into the water with me is to wear a travel money belt that I don't mind getting wet with salt water (it's not waterproof but I have several so I just use one of them) and then I put things in a ziplock freezer bag, and put that freezer bag in the money belt.
There are also designated waterproof waist pouches that you can store your valuables and take into the water with you.
