BACK TO CARIBBEAN GOLF COURSES

St Kitts, or St Christopher, was once a notorious pirates’ lair. It is soon to become a haven for golfers with four new courses scheduled for completion.
Even now, with just the existing course at the Royal St Kitts Golf Club, it is already a big league player and an essential destination for golf-lovers in the Caribbean.

The Royal St Kitts Golf Club, renovated in 2005, has been raised to the level of the greatest courses and is one of the pearls of the Caribbean region as well as a formidable challenge.
Like a suite of symphonic variations, the course is alternately peaceful, stimulating, heroic or majestic, drawing the player toward a breathtaking finale.
