Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw International Airport (SKB)

Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw International Airport (SKB)

Named after the first Premier of St. Kitts-Nevis, the Robert L. Bradshaw Airport is an international airport located just northeast of Basseterre, on the island of Saint Kitts. It is possible to fly directly to Saint Kitts from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom as well as numerous flights from within the Caribbean area. The airport is rather small, but there are quite a few options inside for food, beverage and duty free shops. Something important to pay attention to is that camouflage clothing is prohibited in the airport premises, as camouflage is considered in the country to be strictly for military and law enforment active members.

Public Transport

Public Transport

When it comes to public transportation in Saint Kitts and Nevis, the main option is called "H Buses." These are small buses, which you can identify by their green license plates. There are two bus stations in Basseterre, one serving the east side and the other serving the west. The fares are in East Caribbean Dollars (EC$) and are quite affordable. The buses stop at designated spots, but they also stop elsewhere on request. Buses do not go from Basseterre to Frigate Bay or the SE Peninsula, hence consider taking a taxi if you want to go to these two tourist sports.
