Inter Island Connection Service
From sky to sea
In some cases the runways on the islands are too short to accommodate private jets. You may wish to consider flying in to a larger island and then taking a local ferry or boat taxi to your final destination. It is important to always check directly with the ferry or boat taxi to confirm routes, pricing, availability, and their rules and regulations.
Using ferry or boat options for inter island connections can be a fun way to travel.

Getting from St. Kitts to Nevis
The information below is courtesy of Nevis Naturally. One of the favorable ways to arrive on the island of Nevis is to travel by boat. You’ll be greeted by the spectacular views of the idyllic Nevis Peak, which is simply breath-taking—if we do say so ourselves.
Most public boats, small cruise ships and ferries travel to Charlestown, Nevis’ capital, where it’s easy to find taxis or ground transportation to your accommodation. Meanwhile, the ferry from Sea Bridge on St. Kitts, allows for vehicles to travel to and from the docks at Cades Bay, situated on the west coast of the island.
If you like to plan your own schedule, you can opt to schedule a water taxi from Reggae Beach, on the South East Peninsula of St Kitts, and dock at Oualie Bay, which sits on the north of the island. Visitors entering on a yacht are required to check in with customs and immigration ahead of arriving.
