Fort at Brimstone Hill, St.Kitts

Our next stop after the botanical gardens was the Fort at Brimstone Hill. The fort is surrounded by cannons brought there by (us) the British (hehehe) and dates back to 1690, its currently being painstakingly restored by a local non-profit organization.
While we were exploring the fort we spotted a couple of the islands Green Vervet Monkeys scampering around, they're supposed to outnumber the islanders by two to one, and are mischevious little creatures, getting into all sorts of trouble. We also saw lots of Mongoose. The views from the fort are breathtaking, with a panorama of ocean, punctuated by the two peaks of Statia and Saba to the northwest and the lush green rainforest of the interior behind us.
On leaving thr fort we drove out along the other side of the island to the new Marriott resort, which was surrounded by elaborate and expensive houses and villas perched high on the cliffs, overlooking the ocean in one direction and the beautiful golf course below.
We stopped for lunch at the very popular 'Shiggedy shack on Frigate Bay's beach, before returning to Porte Zante and Daisy.
I've heard people say there's nothing much on St.Kitts, I can only say that they obviously didn't explore the island. In my opinion this island shouldn't be missed.
