Hike more than halfway up the volcano that dominates the tiny island of Nevis via a trail that winds through the lush canopy of the lower slopes. Along the way, your guide will introduce you to varieties of native and other plants -- bamboo, fruit trees and ferns among them – that thrive in the rainforest that is often enveloped in clouds. Your destination is a panoramic lookout at about 1,700 feet. On clear days, the view from here is especially spectacular, extending out to the islands of Montserrat, Antigua and Redonda.

The rich history and unique heritage of Nevis are the focus of this introduction to this small yet delightful island. It’s a short drive from the yacht to the heart of the capital and port of Charlestown, whose 18th- and 19th-century Georgian-style buildings are elegant in their simplicity. Go inside the Museum of Nevis History, also known as the Hamilton House. Here Alexander Hamilton, a founding father of the United States and the first treasurer of the new nation, was born. The tour continues on to St. Thomas’ Lowland Church, the island’s oldest.

Ride in the footsteps of a young Alexander Hamilton as you explore the slopes of Nevis, once carpeted with sugar cane fields interspersed with plantation houses. The legacy of this bygone era is a multitude of tracks and trails that crisscross the entire island, providing you with an adventure playground where you are constantly discovering relics and remnants of Nevis’ former days of glory. Though it's only a small island, Nevis offers a variety of tracks and roads with minimal traffic to suit all levels of fitness and ability.

Enjoy a classic Caribbean adventure on one of the most beautiful islands. It’s a short drive through some of the most quaint villages on Nevis, including an area where cotton was once cultivated, to the stables. After getting teamed with the right horse and getting equipped, you’ll be riding along the sands of a beach with views out over the sparkling sea to Nevis’ sister island of St. Kitts. Overlooking the beach from a hilltop perch stands St. Thomas, the oldest church on Nevis, dating to 1643.

You might find lobsters, starfish, eels, tarpon fish, baby nurse sharks, and if you’re lucky, even sea turtles and migrating humpback whales in the marine park off the coast of Colombier Beach, one of the most famous snorkeling areas in the Caribbean. The protection of the bay and a ban on fishing allow for superb snorkeling with the assurance of seeing a multitude of neon-colored fish. David and Peggy Rockefeller owned the land surrounding this beautiful bay and stretch of sand (you can still see their villa in the hills), so don’t be surprised if you hear it called Rockefeller Beach.

Explore the diverse landscapes along with cultural landmarks while riding along an eight-mile route on the western side of Vieques.

Puerto Mosquito Bay on Vieques is one of a handful of bioluminescent bays in the world. Microscopic organisms known as Dinoflagellates glow whenever there is movement in the water, a phenomena that best appreciated in the dark.

It’s a short ride from the yacht in Esperanza to the bay, where you’ll meet your tour guides. They will first hold a thorough safety and environmental briefing on using the glass-bottomed, two-person kayak and protecting this delicate ecosystem.

The beauty of Puerto Rico’s rainforest interior and its ocean beaches is yours to experience on this combination tour. The island is home to only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System. Named for a 3,500-foot-high mountain peak, El Yunque National Forest covers 28,000 acres of northeastern Puerto Rico and is a sanctuary for birds and other wildlife. Although heavily damaged by Hurricane Maria in 2017, the forest is recovering, a natural process that will evolve over time.
