So on this, General, the Caribbean countries usually get the least amount of views, and they're kind of pushed off to the side with minimal anticipation, because everyone thinks the Caribbean nations are all the same.

I'm gonna get good footage, interview the people and put them in the spotlight.

We are covering the Caribbean triplets, the saints, and today we cover the smallest nation in the Americas ST Kitts and Nevis.

What makes this country different from all the others?

Well, for one, they have drunken monkeys that fight each other.

But you gotta watch this episode to find out Kitts and Nevis.

And by the way, if you go there, hit my girl.

This is a country that everyone should know about, but the locals kind of don't want you to know about them yet.

Reason being because, Well, it's kind of like, Whoa, it's a little cheaper than the other islands here and way less crowded.

Wait, Beyonce and make Jagger were here last week.

Think it says a lot of secrets that they don't want too many people to know about.

Now, if you come to this country, you'll notice that everything in ST Kitts and Nevis is kind of improvised and capitalized off.

I mean, even the name of the country is kind of like a choppy English bastardization of Spanish words.

It literally was like, Okay, so what should we name this country?

Well, Christopher Columbus First name them starring Crystal Ball and Wester Senora de Last Davis.

But you know, we're British, So forget the whole Spanish thing.

Differ, Chris Chris, Kick kiss kits ST Kitts and for the other wanna Nevis neat Nev ni ni never Nevis Nevis, their egos and Kitts and Nevis.

Yeah, that's kind of how they got their name anyway.

First of all, ST Kitts and Nevis is located in the Caribbean and more specifically in the region known as the Lesser Antilles, which is basically all the small islands of the archipelago passed Puerto Rico.

It is also located in the sub region of the Leeward Islands, which is basically all the small islands north of Dominica, their closest neighbor being the Dutch Overseas Department of ST Eustatius, or Stay Sha, only about 15 miles or 25 kilometers northwest.

At only about 101 square miles in total land area, it is the smallest sovereign state in the Americas and the Western Hemisphere.

The country has one main international airport, Robert L.

Bradshaw International, just above best Hair and Nevis Island has the second Vance W.

Amory International, which operates mostly private and seasonal charter flights from nearby islands.

Each island has don't Ring road that essentially traces the entire perimeter of the coasts.

But if you look at ST Kitts, they actually have this long, narrow stretch known as the peninsula that extends into a bowl shaped land mass.

At the end, at less than 10 kilometers long and only 1/5 of a mile wide or 1/3 of a kilometer, this narrow part with a road passing is disputed Lee, the world's smallest and narrowest isthmus.

At the top of Timothy Hill, you get the best view where the Atlantic and Caribbean Sea meet.

The riptide is way too strong, and it will probably kill you anyway.

In addition, ST Kitts also has a railway.

Yeah, a long time ago, it was used for sugar cane transportation, but Now it's used for tourism.

Three hour long guided ride starts in Connery Village, close to the airport with fun stops along the way, and ends in Sandy Point, about 18 miles away.

The country just got their first streetlights in 2018 with a whopping three and best hair.

In addition, the country also has a plethora of interesting sounding town names like Hard Times, Brick Kiln, Canada, Monkey Hill, Ginger Land that Somebody say Ginger Land.

The only major I Let the country owns his Boobie Island, which has booby birds.

And, as the locals will clearly point out, kind of looks like a boob.

And then there's I kid you, not him Bay Fun fact.

Despite their small size, ST Kitts can handle a lot of sea vessel transport, regular cargo ships and ferries between ST Kitts and Nevis, Doctor to invest airport and Port Santa is in charge of birthing all the large cruise ships.

In fact, they can host up the three oasis class cruise ships at once, making them the smallest country in the world capable off this massive feat of engineering.

And the top most famous notable sight, probably being Brimstone Hill Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

In addition, though, there are tons of natural sites as well.

Nevis has these cool hot springs, but we'll discuss all that later in the Kali Nago, natives of this country called the Island of ST Kitts Lie Amiga, which means fertile land and Nevis was called Wally, or the Land of Clearwater, anyway, getting ahead of ourselves.

The country is located on the Caribbean plate in the sub region known as the Antillean Arc, which converges into the North American plate.

This is why multiple islands in this part of the Caribbean are still actively volcanic or have geothermal activity ST Kitts and Nevis being one of them, essentially both islands air, tropical and the entire length of ST Kitts has a mountain spine, with the highest peak being Mt.

Lie Amiga, a dormant volcano on the northwest side hidden at the top.

It has a small geothermal Lee heated crater lake at the summit.

The Spanish Ward Nevis or Snow, alluding to the white on top.

Otherwise, generally the west part of the country is more lush in wet as they get around 60 inches of rain a year.

ST Kitts is a little more dry, with only about 16 inches of rain annually, and you see some cactus plants along the peninsula Otherwise, the Narrows is the space of water dividing the two islands, which has the choppy ist waves.

The reason being because if you zoom out, this is essentially the point where the warm Gulf stream converges into the colder Atlantic Jetstream, meaning that most of the waves on the north side of the island are bigger and crazier, whereas the South Caribbean side is more tame and docile.

It's like the calmest place ever with a great view of Nevis in the background.

And speaking of column, It's time for my triple shot of espresso break, which means no one comes in for the rest of segment, thinking to clean that mug out, just saying, Yeah, well, Either way, you could get a job offer.

Now, McGee Geography now dot com state gets uneven the tropical island nation in a warm climate that has an abundance of rain.

In fact, almost daily you will get short five ish minute spurts of rain from large cumulus clouds that hovering clusters all over different parts of the island.
