- Immigration & customs at SKB → exit to arrivals hall.
- Meet & Greet: Your driver/guide will be waiting with a Book Nevis sign. Luggage is loaded.
- Private drive across St. Kitts to Reggae Beach (25–30 mins), with short commentary on the way.
- Boat transfer:
- To Oualie Beach (most guests): ~6–8 mins crossing, typically short in normal conditions.

When Should I Choose Oualie vs Four Seasons Pier?
Oualie Beach Pier suits most Nevis hotels with the shortest water time. Four Seasons pier is only for Four Seasons guests and brings you straight into the resort.

Why this route works well
The Reggae Beach crossing is the route we recommend most often, and it’s the one we run several times a day:
- Families with kids: child seats are available at $20 per ground leg, the second driver on the Nevis side means no transferring kids and bags onto a taxi rank, and the boat ride of around 6–8 minutes is short enough for nervous travellers.
- Late arrivals and overnight connections: we run at night with no after-hours fee, and we track flights, so a delayed inbound doesn’t add a charge or risk leaving you stranded.
- Hotel guests with full luggage: you don’t touch your bags between SKB and check-in — the same crew handles loading at the airport, the boat, and the Nevis vehicle.
- Four Seasons guests: the boat routes directly to the resort’s own pier (10–15 mins), so you skip the onward Nevis taxi entirely.
