There's no better way to enjoy St. Kitts over the holidays than by attending the St. Kitts Nevis carnival. Carnival begins in mid-December and spans three fun-filled weeks of pageants, parades, and bacchanalian splendor, culminating with the Grand Carnival Parade on New Year's day. The carnival is the only one in the Caribbean that blends the spirit of Christmas with the colorful display of the nation's culture and African heritage. For more about the St. Kitts Nevis carnival, visit the website at www.stkittscarnival.com.
