Fodor's Expert Review Oualie Beach

South of Mosquito Bay and north of Cades and Jones Bays, this beige-sand beach lined with palms and seagrapes is where the folks at Oualie Beach Resort can mix you a drink and fix you up with water-sports equipment. There's excellent snorkeling amid calm water and fantastic sunset views with St. Kitts silhouetted in the background. Several beach chairs and hammocks (free with lunch, $3 rental without) line the sand and the grassy "lawn" behind it. Oualie is at the island's northwest tip, approximately 3 miles (5 km) west of the airport. Amenities: food and drink; water sports. Best for: snorkeling; sunset.
