A Tour of The Best Beaches on The Island of Nevis |
|
Cades Bay Beach
- Good swimming, sandy bottom, very soft, almost powder like sand. The waves break quickly here, and can be a bit high in a strong wind. Great views of the Caribbean, Saint Kitts, and Nevis Peak in the background. The beach is just off the main road by the old Cades Bay Inn. Just ask anybody you see, and they can give you directions. As always in Nevis...
all beaches are public to the high water line. |
|
Lover's Beach
- The mile-long Lover's Beach, is a very private and secluded beach with a intimate atmosphere. The sea here is usually a bit rough, and not suitable for small children or poor swimmers. This beach is pretty, unspoiled and perfect for sunbathing in privacy. Great views of the Caribbean and the neighboring island St. Kitts. Off the main road, but can be a bit hard to find.

Newcastle Beach
- This broad swath of soft white sand is shaded by coconut trees and sits at the northernmost tip of the island near Nisbet Plantation. It is popular with snorkelers, but has some stony sections and occasional strong currents can kick up seaweed and the sandy bottom. A great place to watch the planes come and go from the
Nevis Airport. Newcastle beach is just off the main road near Nisbet Plantation. |
|
Nisbet Beach - One of the most beautiful beaches on Nevis, this white sandy stretch has beautiful views of St. Kitts and the azure sea. The home of the Nisbet Plantation Beach Club, this beach is a favorite of many tourists looking for peace and tranquility. It is a great place for
sunbathing, swimming, reading, or strolling along the palm-lined beach. Located off the main road through Blue Crescent Estates. |
|
Oualie Beach
- The most popular beach spot on Nevis. With a lively beach bar, and a restaurant, most visitors wind up here at some point during their stay. This beige colored beach is lined with palms and sea grape plants. Several beach chairs and hammocks line the sand and the lawn behind it. Children love this beach because they'll usually find a friend here. Off the main road at the
Oualie Beach Resort Hotel. |
|
Pinney's Beach - The famous Pinney's Beach, is a fabulous stretch of beach, and the home of the posh, but touristy Four Seasons Resort. Smooth, soft, sugar-fine white sands are punctuated by coconut palms. The water, calm and shallow, is perfect for swimming or wading. Across the way, there
are beautiful views of Saint. Kitts, and behind is the majestic Nevis Peak. Off the main road, by Four Seasons. |
