Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park

A must see when visiting St Kitts. The fort itself is brilliant, you can see why it's a UNESCO world heritage site. But moreover, the staff are so incredibly friendly, the views are outstanding, Phil in the souvenir shop is friendly and he's got lots of local artisan things for sale. We sat in the restaurant for a good while, admiring the view of the mountains and the sea. You won't regret a visit.

This was absolutely incredible. A must visit in St Kitts. Brimstone is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. They do a great job showcasing and explaining the history and artifacts of the fortress, including a QR code so you can have a virtual brochure as you walk around. The views are also unreal. $15 USD per person to enter Check out the gift shop. So much cool and unique stuff! Eat at the restaurant too! Very good.

One of the most intense forts we have visited and very well preserved and documented. Excellent exhibits within the citadel and beautiful grounds. Be prepared for the long drive up that is very narrow and doesn't allow passing everywhere. Not sure how larger vehicles make it through the gates.

The historic fortress looms large over Sandy Point, and can seem to dwarf the village it was built to defend when looking out from the hilltop. The grounds are immaculate, and the condition of the excavated fortifications is pristine. I am more tantalized by the promise of tomorrow: what more will they unearth, or how will they open the Hill to pedestrians with a shaded walking path from the Island Main Road, maybe?

Get ready to walk and climb if you want to see the Fortress. There are many beautiful sights and views as well as informative displays in the Fortress. We had lunch as well and were treated to friendly service and good portions and, of course, excellent food.

This is a must-see destination on St Kitts. The fort and surrounding fortifications remain intact or are being restored and it must have been quite the impressive location and endeavor to build. The museum has several informative exhibits in the buildings inside the main fortress and the views from the gun terrace are magnificent. Be sure to check out the Artillery Officers quarters. No slumming it for them! There is an introductory film shown in the building below the ramp to the fortress that is worth watching. There are toilet facilities, a gift shop, handicapped parking and it looks like more facilities are in progress. The road up is very narrow in parts and the gates are very tight, so be sure to use your horn to alert others coming up or down. It would be helpful to remind people of this as they pay to enter, although there are signs.

A UNESCO site Brimstone Hill Fortress in St Kitts. A stop that was part of our tour. Great view of the island, would have been nice if there was a vocal tour guide talking about the place.

Amazing views and well worth the entry price of $30 the restaurant was very nice however we were charged about £7 for a bottle of water which I thought was a bit expensive, especially when compared to $3 for a bottle of beer. A nice bonus on the way down was that we saw about 20 monkeys.
