One of the more popular beaches in St. Kitts, Cockleshell Bay is on the island’s southern tip facing Nevis, which means it offers great views of its sister island. The beach’s stark white sands contrast with the calm jewel-toned waves that lap up against travelers’ feet. Cockleshell Bay stretches across 2 miles and is also home to a few hip beach bars (including a highly praised reggae joint) and seafood eateries. Visitors warn that the sands can get crowded when cruise ships are in port and suggest heading here early to stake out some prime beach real estate. Many also warned beachgoers to keep an eye out for the vendors with monkeys trying to entice you to hold them and take a photo (for which they expect to be paid).
Cockleshell Bay beach is free to access, though you may need some cash to rent beach chairs or enjoy conch fritters and drinks at one of the beach bars.
