Saint Kitts and Nevis

At a Glance

Saint Kitts and Nevis is a small twin-island nation in the Caribbean with a green volcanic interior, British colonial heritage, and a more relaxed and unhurried atmosphere than many of its neighbours. The sugar cane fields that once defined the island's economy now give way to hiking trails and a scenic railway. It suits those who want a quieter Caribbean experience with a little more character than the resort-only islands.

• Smallest country in the Western Hemisphere.
• Pioneered citizenship-by-investment — still one of the world's most established programmes.
