St. Kitts is a favorite port of mine. I especially like the Caribelle Batik factory at Romney Manor. I purchased 2 large pieces of fabric (2 and 3 yards) and a bag of pieces. The pieces are not cut for quilting, but they are pretty pieces and I will enjoy working with them on a project. I spent $175 so it is not cheap fabric. I also bought 2 hand towels that were a splurge at $20 apiece. I was not disappointed with this purchase as I was in other ports. We did an ATV excursion that included a stop at the Batik factory. The excursion was booked through Viator.com and we enjoyed it. It was hot and my hands got a bad sunburn on them. I recommend 50 SPF with zinc for hands and nose in the Caribbean. The sun is strong there, and the sun poisoning is no fun to have for the rest of the cruise. We would have liked more riding through the jungle, and less in the sun. My cruise partner decided it was too long, but I thought we got our money’s worth.

We took a scenic train ride around the island, and found it to be very interesting, and beautiful. The locals were very friendly, and it was a great way to see a lot of the island in a short period of time.

This was probably our least favourite port. The disparity between the haves(many foreign) and the have-nots is so striking. The differences between this island and Antigua were so obvious to us. This was a very pretty place though. Caribelle Batik at Romney Manor was a highlight for us.
