Discover Barefoot Luxury on the Island of Nevis

On the dreamy Caribbean isle of Nevis, languid beach days are met with pursuits in history and studies in unfussy, barefoot luxury.  This 99-square-mile volcanic island of the Lesser Antilles archipelago maintains the simplicity of a bygone era, splendidly removed from the rest of the modern world. And while it’s always been a good idea to vacation in Nevis for this very reason, it seems that now, it’s better than ever.

Luckily, the “Land of Beautiful Waters” is just a Tradewind charter flight away. Here’s what to see and do during an escape to Nevis.

The Reinvention of an Island Icon

Following a multi-year, multi-million-dollar enhancement completed in December 2019, the reinvented Four Seasons Resort Nevis has successfully achieved what every iconic hotel covets: a perfect balance of old meets new. Each of the 189 guest rooms and suites has been playfully reimagined with a contemporary edge, including rich textured walls in 19th century-inspired botanical patterns and colorful desk chairs that pay homage to Nevis’s resident monkeys. New restaurant and bar concepts (including the Instagram-perfect Crowned Monkey Rum Bar) also await, as well as the “Limin’ Pool 2.0,” a high-design, lounger-lined infinity-edge pool, which creates the illusion of extending to the Caribbean Sea.

What hasn’t changed is the architectural and design integrity of the resort’s exteriors; though updated, the low-rise plantation-style cottages, West-Indian restaurant Mango’s, and 18-hole, par-71 Robert Trend Jones II-designed golf course remain.

Day Drink on the Beach and Over the Water

Strong cocktails and spectacular ocean views go hand-in-hand on Nevis.  Start the afternoon with a rum-forward “Nevisian Spirit” at feet-in-the-sand Kastawey Beach Bar at the Four Seasons, then walk down the beach to the legendary Sunshine’s Bar Lounge & Grill, which expanded its beachfront seating area in October 2019. Expect a heady mix of catchy reggae music, chatty bar flies, and thirst-quenching “Killer Bees,” the bar’s famed — and highly potent — rum punch. Finally, head to the end of the pier off Pinney’s Beach for sunset Champagne or cocktails at the Four Season’s floating pop-up bar. During happy hour, enjoy two-for-one drinks and fresh ceviche while surrounded by 360 degrees of Caribbean Sea.

Swim from Nevis to St. Kitts — and Back

A trip to Nevis typically entails lots of beach and booze, but extreme sports have their place, too. Case in point: the annual Cross Channel Swim between Nevis and St. Kitts. Seventeen years strong, this annual event and competition welcomes professional open water swimmers, amateurs, and everyone in between to swim 2.5 miles from Nevis’s Oualie Beach to St Kitts’s Cockleshell Bay and back. This year’s Swim, which attracts hundreds of participants annually (and even more spectators), takes place on March 29, 2020.

Unearth Nevisian History

Archaeological links to the past live very much in the present all across Nevis. From a 200-year-old sugar mill converted into a romantic private cottage to the Caribbean’s oldest wooden home (c. 1670) transitioned into boutique hotel and restaurant The Hermitage, there are many sights where Nevis keeps history in style. Most recently, another restored relic has come on our radar. Off a dirt road north of Charlestown, discover the preserved ruins of Cottle Church, an Anglican church built in 1824 by John Cottle, former President of Nevis. This church played a crucial role in Nevis’ history as a secret place where slaves could pray during a time when slave worship was illegal.

Whether you want to be among the first to experience the reimagined Four Seasons, kick off the New Year with the ultimate “Killer Bee” buzz, or discover a lost-in-time land where luxury and history unite, place Nevis at the top of your travel plans for 2020.

Celebrating a Tradition of Cranberries on Nantucket

Think Nantucket, and, most likely, images of windswept seascapes, gray shingled cottages, historic lighthouses, and quintessential New England sailboats come to mind. But the very Cape Cod island people tend to associate with all things maritime also has some interesting agricultural history. It’s home to the once-largest contiguous cranberry bog in the world, and now the largest certified organic cranberry farm in the United States. 

Here, we delve into Nantucket’s cranberry-harvesting past and present, plus an inside look at the ultimate way to immerse yourself in the Ocean Spray world: the Nantucket Cranberry Festival on Saturday, October 12th.

Once Upon a Nantucket Cranberry Bog

A post shared by CCCGA (@masscranberries) on Sep 5, 2018 at 8:29am PDT

Native to the northern latitudes of North America, cranberry shrubs were first cultivated in the early 1800s in none other than Cape Cod, in the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it town of Denis. Centuries prior, the tart red berries had been used for food and dye by Native Americans and the Pilgrims. By the 19th century, cranberries had become quite the delicacy for use in sauces and desserts, and a fledgling Massachusetts housed idyllic wetlands for growing this now-trendy superfood.

Nantucket jumped on the cranberry farming bandwagon in 1857 with the formation of the Milestone Bog in the center of the island. Many more bogs followed, but it was Milestone that soon made history as the largest contiguous cranberry bog on the planet, measuring at a whopping 234 acres.  

As cultivation and irrigation techniques improved, Nantucket farmers figured out that bigger isn’t always better. Once ripe, the berries are harvested by flooding the sunken agricultural lands and allowing the berries to float to the water’s surface. Dividing larger bogs into smaller parcels proved far more efficient for collecting the so-called “red rubies.” With this in mind, Nantucket developed dozens of smaller bogs, and soon cranberry production proved a strong contributor to the island’s growing economy.  

Nantucket’s Present Day Cran-Culture

A post shared by Nicole Ridge (@nlridge) on Oct 18, 2018 at 7:05am PDT

In the second half of the 20th century, little Nantucket’s cranberry industry became no match for the commercial production that had emerged in Wisconsin, Quebec, and mainland Massachusetts. In August 2019, it was announced that one of the island’s two remaining cranberry operations, the 37-acre Windswept Cranberry Bog, would cease production and transition back into a natural inland wetland — leaving Milestone as Nantucket’s last bog standing. 

Thankfully, under the watchful eye (and ownership) of the Nantucket Conservation Foundation, Milestone’s current 195-acre, 24-bog cranberry excess (and the two million pounds of berries produced there) is here to stay. To ensure this, Milestone has set itself apart from its commercial competitors by becoming exclusively organic, branding Nantucket Conservation Foundation the largest certified organic cranberry grower in the United States. Additionally, in 2004, the Foundation began an annual, one-day Cranberry Festival to raise awareness about Nantucket’s agricultural heritage. Fast-forward to present day, and this adorable festival, which takes place each year over Columbus Day weekend, is one of the most anticipated events of the fall season.

The 16th Annual Cranberry Festival

A post shared by Nantucket Conservation Fdn (@ackconservation) on Oct 10, 2018 at 9:52am PDT

The 16th annual Cranberry Festival will be held at Milestone Bog on Saturday, October 12th, 2019, from 11am to 4pm. This dynamic affair takes place at the height of harvest season, meaning the land will be glowing with abundant picture-perfect red rubies. It also means that you can strap on a pair of rubber waders, grab a rake and wade through a bog—just like the guys in the Ocean Spray ads. Visitors can either partake in the harvest by raking the berries on the surface, or simply go in a for a few fun pictures.

But, of course, there’s so much more to this festival than a great Instagram post. Guests can feast on amazing cranberry dishes from local vendors, such as the cranberry pecan bread from Wicked Island Bakery, cranberry pies from Bartlett’s Farm, cranberry fudge from Aunt Leah’s Fudge, and fresh-pressed juice from ACK Fresh. There are also opportunities to learn about traditional versus organic techniques from professional farmers through one-on-one discussions and guided tours. Plus, you can check out the operational, antique berry bouncing machine (as it sifts berries) and browse a very cool collection of antique tractors.  

Children are sure to love the hayrides along the bog as well as other kid-friendly happenings, including a petting zoo, face-painting, sack races, and meet-and-greets with some of the fluffy sheep living at Milestone (who are supervised by the resident Border Collie, Rem). Meanwhile, adults will appreciate the live music, you-pick areas (for taking a few pounds of the good stuff home), harvesting demos, and self-guided walking trails through the bog and surrounding autumn scenery. This off-the-wall themed festival is a great way to immerse yourself in all things cranberries — with the exception of a vodka cranberry cocktail in hand.

Five Must-See Lighthouses of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard

Throughout the 18th and 19th century, a heady mix of unforgiving seas, craggy ocean shallows, and shifting sand banks branded the waters off Cape Cod a shipwreck hotspot. In response, lighthouses were strategically built across the Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard to protect both sailors and the isles’ burgeoning seafaring-related industries.  

Today, the well-preserved, high-rising structures collectively shine a light—pun intended—on the history and development of these two islands. While these lighthouses are no longer critical thanks to technological advancements in maritime navigation, many remain automated workhorses.

More importantly for travelers, each makes for incredible photographic opportunities and excites the imagination with stories of yore. Here, we present five iconic, must-see lighthouses blending the past with the present on Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard.

Brant Point Light, Nantucket

This 26-foot-tall, circa-1901 lighthouse is officially the shortest lighthouse in all New England. But there’s no Napoleon complex here: Given its proximity to Nantucket Harbor, this all-white wooden beauty is arguably the most photographed site on the island. And thanks to its near three-century past, it’s a big-deal entry on the National Register of Historic Places.

The current structure is the tenth—yes, tenth—rebuild of the second-oldest lighthouse in the country (originally built in 1746, prior to the formation of the United States of America itself). It was automated in 1965, and today, it still beams its bright red light up to ten nautical miles.

Edgartown Harbor Light, Martha’s Vineyard

Believe it or not, this Edgartown icon, which today marks the entrance to Edgartown Harbor, was slated for demolition as recently as the mid-1980s. Under operation by the United States Coast Guard, the circa-1939 cast-iron landmark had fallen into disrepair. But now, under the stewardship of Martha's Vineyard Museum and Martha's Vineyard Historical Society, the lighthouse shines in full glory.

Tours allow visitors to enter inside and climb up to the lantern room. Be sure to ask the lighthouse keeper of the building’s odd and dramatic history, which traces back to an original incarnation (built in 1828) over in Ipswich.

Gay Head Light, Martha’s Vineyard

Given its prime location in Aquinnah (aka Gay Head) in the southwest reaches of Martha's Vineyard, this lighthouse is best appreciated at sunset. But at any time of day, Gay Head Light offers a glimpse of the old Martha's Vineyard. It was erected as the island’s first lighthouse at the turn of the 18th century, though its current red-brick aesthetic reflects a rebuild in 1844, and its current location is thanks to a meticulously-executed, piece-by-piece move in 2015.

With white and red lights that reach 24 and 20 nautical miles, respectively, the lighthouse still keeps sailors aware of the perilous underwater rocky ledge known as Devil's Bridge, much like it did centuries ago. The lighthouse is open for tours seasonally through the Town of Aquinnah.

Great Point Light, Nantucket

Reaching the so-called “Nantucket Light” is a New Englander’s rite of passage. This fully operational, all-white stone lighthouse, rebuilt in 1986 to reflect its original 1784 appearance, stands at Nantucket’s northernmost point on a small spit of land where the Atlantic Ocean and Nantucket Sound meet.

Tucked deep within the Coskata-Coatue Wildlife Reserve and known for its unspoiled dunes and prolific birdlife, the lighthouse is accessible only by sandy roads. Meaning, you’ll need to walk seven miles on foot, rent a four-wheel-drive vehicle (with the proper beach permit), or pre-plan for a guided-tour with The Trustees of Reservations of Massachusetts. Whichever you choose, expect to reap worthwhile rewards by taking this (unpaved) road less traveled.

Sankaty Head Light, Nantucket

Near the easternmost tip of Nantucket in the village of Siasconset, this 70-foot-tall, brick-and-granite lighthouse dates back to 1850, when it was built on a bluff straddling one of Nantucket’s most raw and wild coastlines. Though it was moved 400 feet inland in 1987 as a protection against bluff erosion, the historic lighthouse still operates as a navigational tool today, beaming a white light out 24 nautical miles every 7.5 seconds.

The lighthouse itself is closed to visitors, but the grounds are not. Given its remote location and few visitors, anticipate having this man-made marvel mostly to yourself—and your deep thoughts.

Up Close and Personal with Cape Cod’s Great White Sharks

The ocean’s most feared apex predators, great white sharks, have triumphantly returned to Cape Cod and its surrounding islands. But there’s no need to cue the Jaws theme: While their return may not sound like good news to beachgoers in the Northeast, the sharks’ reestablished presence provides visitors a unique opportunity to experience these misunderstood, majestic creatures in an authentic and safe way.

The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy (AWSC) offers a number of ecotours designed to give the public a better understanding of the great white comeback (spurred by a rebound in the grey seal population), allowing them to see firsthand what scientists are doing to help man and shark peacefully coexist. AWSC’s most thrilling adventure? Its “Great White Shark Expedition,” a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get up close and personal with the Cape’s most notorious resident (and live to tell the tale).

Photo: Paul Rubio

No, this isn’t a controversial cage-diving experience like those common in South Africa, where waters are chummed and seal dummies are thrashed around to attract and excite the sharks. This is a research-based wildlife interaction in which participants shadow shark researchers as they tag, identify, and study great whites off the coast of Cape Cod.

In partnership with Chatham Bars Inn, AWSC runs the expeditions twice daily on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from July 3rd to October 27th (weather permitting). Departing from the pier at Chatham Bars Inn and accompanied by a member of AWSC's team, a maximum of five guests head out into prime great white real estate. Sharks are detected using aerial surveys from the research team’s Cessna plane overhead, through shark receivers, and with AWSC’s Sharktivity app, which monitors the whereabouts and activity of previously tagged great white sharks in the area.

Once spotted, sharks are slowly approached, and a hydrophone is placed into the water to determine if the shark has already been tagged. If so, the shark’s coordinates are matched to the app. If not, scientists may attempt to tag the great white. In all cases, the sharks are identified — the team is on a first-name basis with most sharks, seeing them daily and already knowing each one’s personality traits. Observations are then logged by the team.

Photo: Paul Rubio

There are many purposes for this trip: First, you’ll witness conservation in action as scientists collect data used in behavioral and ecological studies of great whites. Next, you’ll get to participate first-hand in mitigating human-wildlife conflicts (the Sharktivity app uses the information gathered to send alerts to researchers and the public when tagged sharks get a little too close to the shoreline for comfort). Moreover, you’ll become an ambassador for helping debunk the myth of great whites as man-hungry villains. In fact, you’ll be stunned at how shy many of the great whites appear upon approach and how they go about their daily business along the Cape, rarely bothering beachgoers. (In fact, the latest shark attack stats from 2018 indicate a slim 1 in 3.75 million chance of being attacked.)

Of course, as this is nature, shark sightings are never guaranteed. That said, on Goodspeed’s particular Great White Shark Expedition, five were spotted at close range. If this experience sounds a little too intense, AWSC also offers one-hour “Receiver Excursions” on Mondays and Wednesdays from July 1st through September 2nd, 2019. On this trip, you’ll cruise around the seal-rich Chatham Harbor with AWSC staff, looking for signs of predation and analyzing data from a shark receiver and Sharktivity.

Photo: Paul Rubio

Another AWSC adventure to consider is the all-day “White Sharks and Whales” group expedition, where guests will seek out great whites plus humpback whales and seabirds. Taking place only twice per year, the trip leaves from Plymouth, Massachusetts and includes breakfast, lunch, and a souvenir T-Shirt. Dates this year are September 7th and Sept 14th, 2019. 

Whichever excursion sounds most exciting, visitors to Cape Cod shouldn’t miss out on their chance to play a role in the area’s great white shark comeback story.

Tradewind Aviation offers charter flights to Cape Cod year-round. Great White Shark Expeditions are $2,500 per boat for up to five passengers (most of this fee goes directly to research and is tax deductible). Receiver Excursions are $55 per person; White Sharks and Whales trips are $160 per person. To learn more and book your shark expedition, call AWSC at 1-800-527-4884.

New England’s Top Food and Wine Festivals This Spring

As winter thaws and warmer weather approaches, the countdown has begun for two of New England’s most celebrated food and wine festivals of the 2019 season: the Nantucket Wine & Food Festival (May 15-19) and the Newport Oyster Festival (May 17-19).

For its 23rd anniversary, the Nantucket Wine & Food Festival will host more than 60 exciting events, from socialite-studded tastings and lavish dinners to informative wine seminars. Meanwhile, in its fourth year, the Newport Oyster Festival on Bowen’s Wharf kicks off with an intimate Friday night opening party before moving into two full days dedicated to all things oysters, set to spirited live music.

Here, the scoop on two epicurean spring flings you’ll find in the Northeast this year, each located in charming coastal destinations accessible by Tradewind Aviation.

Nantucket Wine & Food Festival

May 15-19, 2019

This wildly popular five-day Nantucket festival marks the official start of season, celebrating the Grey Lady’s return to New England’s social and culinary scenes.

Since its humble beginnings as a small-scale, single-day celebration in 1997, the Nantucket Wine & Food Festival has blossomed into one of New England’s most anticipated annual events. Today, it’s where the best-of-the-best regional chefs unite with more than 150 esteemed wineries — from as far as New Zealand to as close as Long Island — and host grand dinners, wine and food seminars, grand tasting events, luncheon symposia, and more.

Book early for seats in the “Great Wines in Grand Houses” series, featuring venerable chefs working with coveted wineries to deliver one-of-a-kind paired menus in private island homes. For example, on May 18, award-winning chef and restaurateur Michael Scelfo (of Alden & Harlow fame) teams up with third-generation Italian winemaker Federico Ceretto at a local mansion for a four-hour journey through Ceretto’s namesake varietals, with sublime cuisine to match ($700).

The festival hits its peak during the two-hour “Grand Tasting” sessions at the White Elephant Hotel (two on May 18, starting at $185 and one on May 19, $135). These three sessions are the main events: Festival-goers have the opportunity to sample 600+ wines from 150+ global wineries, all while enjoying bites from local restaurants and mingling with fellow oenophiles.  

Those looking to pepper established festival favorites with out-of-the-box experiences have plenty of options, too. For example, consider “Sake + Sashimi,” a tasting hosted by sake expert Rachelle Bose and complemented by sashimi pairings from PABU Boston ($125).  Or, rise and shine for “Namaste then Rosé,” a morning of vinyasa yoga paired with a cooking demonstration and some heavy pours of the good stuff with winemaker Susana Balbo and celebrity chef Elizabeth Falkner. An intoxicating combo of wellness and wine? We’ll toast to that.

Newport Oyster Festival

May 17-19, 2019

This foodie-fueled festival is an immersion into Rhode Island’s ocean-to-table and locavore movements. For one weekend, the state’s oyster farmers gather at Newport’s Bowen Wharf to showcase their fresh catches to the public and offer insight into the state’s thriving aquaculture industry.

The weekend begins with an intimate opening party (limited to 200 participants, $125) benefiting the Ocean State Aquaculture Association, The Nature Conservancy, and SSV Oliver Hazard Perry (Rhode Island’s official Sailing School Vessel). Under the festival tents, guests feast on unlimited freshly shucked oysters from eight leading farms while sipping Champagne from an open bar. The event also offers the chance to spend time with regional farmers and local business owners, with Chelley Knight & the Daybreaks quartet performing a selection of jazz standards in the background.

From 11am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday, the wharf buzzes with festival-goers eating and imbibing to the beats of more live music. Sets from six bands represent different genres, ranging from rock and funk to reggae and jazz. Visitors can sample fruits of the sea from 10 different oyster farms — advance purchase tickets include six fresh RI oysters and a beverage for $27. Attendees can also expect a sugar rush from on-site vendors like Anchor Toffee, La Petite Creperie, and Sprinkles (the island’s resident ice cream and cappuccino supplier) before learning about aquaculture and reef restoration from The Nature Conservancy educators.

Six Can’t-Miss Beach Bars in the Caribbean

While there’s no shortage of adventure to be found on a Caribbean vacation, sometimes, the best activity is none at all. Kick back with a tropical cocktail at one of these six incredible Caribbean beach bars, where you can admire the ocean blues, enjoy refreshing island fare, and maybe even plant your feet in the sand. If wanderlust strikes, a Caribbean escape is only a Tradewind flight away.

Cip by Cipriani’s, Anguilla

Anguilla resort Cap Juluca reopened in December 2018 as a new flagship Belmond property, and its reincarnation brought in a slew of incredible beachfront bars and restaurants. Our favorite: Cip by Cipriani’s, an offshoot of the Belmond Hotel Cipriani’s culinary hotspot in Venice. Grab a front row seat by the impossibly beautiful Maundays Bay, order a bottle of rosé and some classic Italian bites, and let the hours slip by. 

Eden Rock Beach Bar, St. Barths

Eden Rock St Barths may not reopen until late 2019, but its fabulous new beach bar is already up and running — and buzzing. St. Barths’ legendary people watching, celebrity spying, and fashion spotting comes to life across St. Jean Bay, with a cold glass of fine French wine in hand. Enjoy the views on a high-top stool at the bar, or get cozy on a beach lounger.

Plage, St. Barths

Photo: Plage via Le Sereno

In rebuilding Le Sereno St. Barth after Hurricane Irma, the property added a new toes-in-the-sand beachfront restaurant, Plage. With prime views of Grand Cul de Sac bay, it has the kind of vibe that makes you want to stay a while. As the palm trees sway above, sip on a Sereno Spritz (June liqueur, freshly muddled raspberry, grapefruit juice, peach bitters, and prosecco), nibble on the red Sicilian prawn carpaccio, and take in every moment of the good life.

Sandy Island, Anguilla

When Hurricane Irma struck in 2017, she swallowed much of Sandy Island, which was home to an eponymous beach shack. But Sandy Island has resurfaced with a dreamy 360-degree beach, a rebuilt restaurant pavilion, and plenty of umbrella-capped beach beds for those languid beach days. Order the “Crazy for Crayfish” — it’s the Anguillan delicacy in its best BBQ form — and wash it down with the secret-recipe JoJo Rum Punch. You can access this slice of paradise by private boat or the island’s daily water shuttle, which leaves from Sandy Ground Beach on the Anguilla mainland. Oh, and prepare for a wet landing (it’s part of the experience). 

Soggy Dollar, Jost Van Dyke, BVIs

Photo: Soggy Dollar Bar

No beach-bar hopping experience across the British Virgin Islands is complete without a stop at Soggy Dollar, a Jost Van Dyke icon. After all, this is where the “Painkiller” cocktail was born and perfected in the 1970s. Following a 2018 rebuild, it’s once again possible to enjoy this heady mix of premium dark rum, cream of coconut, pineapple, and orange juice (topped with fresh-grated Grenadian nutmeg) with local yachters.

Sunshine’s Beach Bar & Grill, Nevis

Photo: Four Seasons Resort Nevis

Though it’s situated right next to the gorgeous Four Seasons Resort Nevis, there’s nothing glamorous about Sunshine’s Beach Bar — and that’s exactly its charm. The brightly colored bar is low on frills and packed with local barflies, and it pumps out reggae music day and night while serving super-strong drinks that’ll knock you off your feet. For the true Sunshine’s experience, order the “Killer Bee” rum punch, which goes down way too easy and, as the name suggests, stings in the end. Sunshine’s is the kind of under-the-radar bar you’ll reminisce about long after your Caribbean vacation (at least, what you can recall).
