How to get to Nevis
|
|
|
|
|
From the U.S., Canada and Europe, there are four primary gateways to Nevis. The most common route from the U.S. and Canada is through San Juan, Puerto Rico. It's now possible to fly non-stop from San Juan to Nevis on direct flights provided by Cape Air, Tradewinds Aviation, Seabourne Airlines & Air Sunshine. Other connection points include Antigua, St. Maarten and St. Kitts. For connections in St. Kitts, you have the option of taking a scenic ferry ride to Nevis using any of the ferry services listed (see Getting to Nevis by Sea). No reservation is required. You would need to take a quick taxi ride from the airport in St. Kitts to the ferry terminal. The cost of the ferry to Nevis differs according to the service used, but price ranges from US $8.00 to US $9.50 one way. No reservations are required for the ferry service.
