Leewards Bound July 2015 - St. Kitts Question

[commander500]

Does anybody have information about the Cristophe Harbor Marina? Is it worth visiting (even if shorter than 100')?

Cheers to all!

We were in St Kitts for New Year's (2015) and stayed about 10 days but mostly in Port Zante in Basseterre due to very high wind and seas. Were finally able to sail South to the peninsular. We anchored off of S Friar's Bay and took the dinghy to the new dinghy dock then bar hopped along the beach. Cristophe Harbor Marina isn't finished but they do send out an open WiFi signal which our Bullet could pick up. It gave you 15 min before you had to renew the lease. Very nice of them and allowed us to catch up on email.

The 2 January posts have information about our stay - the 2nd one has more about the Southern Peninsular even though its title doesn't mention it.
S/V WAHOO

We loved St Kitts and Nevis hope you do to!

Anchor out from Cristophe Harbor Marina in White House Bay. Very pretty and a good anchorage. Easy run from there over to Nevis. Not much at Cristophe Harbor Marina. Fun to dinghy in and explore. Also good place to secure the dinghy and walk out to the main road. The marina management called us a taxi so we could get fuel. The taxi driver took us to Raggae Beach Bar. Great little place with good food and cold beer.
