3 Days at the Four Seasons Nevis
About the Island of Nevis
Never heard of Nevis? I hadn’t either before I was invited to go for 3 days with a group of media!
Nevis is a 36-square-mile island in the Caribbean Leeward Islands with a population of about 13,000. It’s sister island is the much larger Saint Kitts. As you fly into Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport on St. Kitts (SKB), you’ll see the formidable, dormant Nevis Peak volcano, miles of beautiful beaches, grand cliffs, a lush countryside, and villages with small, colorful buildings.
Nevis locals are warm and very hospitable. The dominant language is English spoken with a strong West Indian accent, however, the language often spoken amongst locals is English-based creole known as Nevisian or Nevis Creole.
Vervet monkey and wild goats sightings are common. Alexander Hamilton (yes, THAT Hamilton), was born on the island. History buffs will enjoy the Hamilton House and Hamilton Museum.
