NevisNevis is one of the most unspoilt islands in the Caribbean. It forms part of the inner arc of the Leeward Islands and sits two miles from St. Kitts and 50 miles west of Antigua. It’s a very special place known for its charm and the easy-going friendliness of its people.
The island of Nevis has always been a place where the ecology is considered important. Vividly green with blue skies, clean air and long empty beaches, Nevis has a pace of life that encourages you to stop and appreciate all the natural beauty around you. British settlers arrived in Nevis in 1628 and the island first made its mark as a major sugar producer, an industry that has long since gone. Today it is an intimate and relaxed tourist destination with a small number of beach-front and hillside hotels, ranging from a modern spa resort to historic sugar plantations-turned-hotels and beach-side cottages. A Tropical Weather!Nevis is located about 17 degrees north of the Equator - 17.10 N, 62.35 W to be precise. Thanks to its wonderful spot on the globe, it enjoys a tropical climate that is tempered all year round by constant sea breezes. In December you can expect 83°F (28°C) and a low chance of rain!

St. Kitts and Nevis ElectricityThe electricity is produced by Nevlec that operates two power plants with diesel generators ranging from 0.9Mw to 2.7Mw. The first Prospect Power Station, which was commissioned in 1983, houses six (6) diesel generators with a combined output of 10.7Mw. The second plant, situated next to the old plant, was commission in 2002 and currently has one generator with an output of 2.7Mw, giving a total installed capacity of 13.4Mw.
More recently in a green effort to preserve the environment, wind turbines and solar panels were installed to reduce the usage of diesel. Wind turbines represent 3% of the total electricity produced for both islands, and solar panels represent 2%. With such a good climate in the Caribbean, it is important to note that it's already been decades that most villas use solar panels to hit their water and cistern to collect rain. The electricity on the islands of St. Kitts and Nevis is 110 volt, with American (and English) sockets. It is best to check before you plug in any device.
