Away Flying from the US is currently the only air option available to St Kitts from outside the Caribbean. American Airlines flies daily between St Kitts and Miami, New York and Boston via San Juan in Puerto Rico. Traveling from Europe or Canada requires flying via Antigua, St Martin or San Juan. Antiguan-based LIAT has daily flights between St Kitts and Antigua and St Martin. Cruise ships dock at Basseterre.
Yachts can dock at Basseterre and Charlestown.
Yachties will need cruising permits to visit other anchorages and a special pass to go between the two islands. Getting Around Renting a car is the best all-around transportation option on both islands. There are numerous car rental agencies on St Kitts and a few in Charlestown and Newcastle on Nevis. Remember to drive on the left. Buses on St Kitts are a decent transportation alternative.
