St. Kitts, Saint Kitts and Nevis
St. Kitts is a small volcanic island with a lush mountainous interior dominated by Mount Liamuiga, a dormant volcano reaching 1,156 meters. The island's most impressive sight is Brimstone Hill Fortress — a massive UNESCO-listed fortification built by the British over a century using enslaved labor. The Scenic Railway, running on tracks originally built to haul sugarcane, now carries tourists around the island.

The Scenic Railway is a popular cruise excursion — book early. Brimstone Hill is a steep climb but the fortress and views are worth it.
