Each year, tourists in St. Kitts, after experiencing everything the island has to offer, return to one destination over and over – Frigate Bay. By day, the Frigate Bay area exemplifies the relaxed Caribbean atmosphere. The large beach at Frigate Bay fills up with families relaxing in the sun, while children swim in the calm water and adventurous tourists cruise the waves on jet skis further offshore. At night, Frigate Bay transforms into St. Kitts best nightlife destination when the beachfront bars and restaurants open their outdoor patios and dance floors. Some of St. Kitts best resorts and shops can also be found along Frigate Bay, making this area a great place to sample all of the island s luxurious highlights.
For many travelers, Frigate Bay Beach resembles the ideal Caribbean destination. The long stretch of soft sand at Frigate Bay Beach is bookmarked by a pair of large hills that jut into the Caribbean. In addition to providing protection to the calm waters offshore, the picturesque hills allow the beach to feel like a secluded cove. Throughout the sand, visitors will find coconut and sea grape trees that offer hints of shade and plenty of tropical flare. When the time comes to enjoy the crystal clear waters offshore, visitors of all ages will find plenty of calm areas to swim or wade, while activities like kayaking, jet skiing and snorkeling are possible further from the shoreline. Of course, as is the custom in the Caribbean, relaxing in the sun is also a popular activity at Frigate Bay Beach.
During the day, many of the bars and restaurants that line the beach offer food and drinks from walk up counters or sandy seating areas. Beachfront restaurants such as Inon s, Ziggy s Beach Bar and Grill and Mr. X s Shiggidy Shack serve food right on the beach throughout the day, while those in need of a drink can pull up a seat at one of Frigate Bay s many sand locked bars. At night, Mr. X s Shiggidy Shack, as well as famous Caribbean destinations like Monkey Bar, strike up bonfires across the beach, while live Caribbean music blends with the sound of gently lapping waves. Known locally as The Strip, this collection of beachfront restaurants and bars has grown steadily over the last several years to become St. Kitts premier dining and nightlife spot.
