Star Clippers Caribbean Cruise - Part 6 - St Kitts
7th January 2016
The beautiful island of St Kitts awaited us, with an early arrival; we all met at 0800 in the Tropical Bar ready for our second excursion of the week, the island jeep safari! Christian, our guide, met us at the port – I had actually done this exact excursion four years ago, and was delighted to see Christian again as he was also my guide last time! With his multicoloured beard and undeniable knowledge of his island, we were in for a real treat.
Stopping at the historic ‘Romney Manor’ and its pristine gardens was very insightful. The flowers and plants were outstanding here and the entire grounds kept in perfect condition, the small gift shop was welcomed by all, with local crafts being purchased as souvenirs – a great pit stop! After the obligatory photo stops, with some incredible views, we were dropped back off at a beach club, where the ship had moved too, ready to collect us from the end of the tour. We were back just in time to enjoy the buffet lunch!
Lunches on board Star Clippers vary each day, with a different nationality providing the theme daily, from Italian banquets to Oriental cuisine and of course a Caribbean feast, there is something to appeal to every appetite! Other than the beach BBQ and the once weekly deck lunch that we offer, all of the lunch buffets are held in the main dining room with the waiters on hand to provide drinks to the table should you wish.
