Walking in Basseterre, St. Kitts - What to Do on Your Day in Port

We take a walk through Basseterre, St. Kitts.

[@jolly7728]

Thanks so much for taking us to this island. You've given your viewers a rare look at Basseterre, St. Kitts. Makes me wonder what life is like for Kittitians, their culture, music, art, history, and so on. Cruise ships often seem so huge when docked in a harbor of small island nations. Nothing quite so massive is anywhere to be found nearby. It would take awhile to get used to seeing them there. They are likely the biggest man-made structures in the Caribbean region.

The "little church" you saw across from Warner Park is the Methodist Church Hall. When the Methodists outgrew it, they set about building the newer and much bigger Methodist Church is to the left (west) of it and directly north of the Anglican Church. The old church became the Basseterre (pronounced "Bas-Tear) Boys' School. If you had gone just a little further up Victoria Road you would have seen another "little church". That is the Anglican Church Hall and, I think, the original Anglican Church. The old church became the Basseterre Girls' School. A modern co-educational elementary school was built early this century and both buildings were returned to their respective owners. Both Church Halls are used for church events such as bible study, town hall meetings, concerts, fairs, plays, parties, seminars, workshops, fund-raisers and other events. The names "Old Boys'/Girls' School" are used interchangeably with Methodist/Anglican Church Hall for the respective buildings.

Loved your walking tour. The Independence Square used to be the old Slave Market (Glad its gone). The Co-Cathedral Catholic Church Of the Immaculate Conception - well, you briefly showed a plaque in the entrance. That plaque is my Maternal Grandmother's Family "Delisle". My Grandfather Joseph Sappienne and his brother Arthur Delisle owned/operated the only Apocathery on the Island at that time on Central Street. Still have family there...Delisle Walwyn & Co. Ltd. · Liverpool Row, 00265 Basseterre, Saint Kitts, and Nevis.

Sister C...Did you know my husband and his wife, Yvette Sutton (Steward) that taught at Sandy Bay school..David was a VSO..Yvette born on st Kitts. Sadly Yvette passed away some years ago in the UK.

[@sisterc6774]

@@barbarahartley6448 Sorry for the lost. Condolences. I'm not sure but the name Yvette Sutton rings a bell, just can't bring her to my thoughts at the moment. Blessings and good evening!!!

[@barbarahartley6448]

@@sisterc6774 Yvette had both brothers and sisters there but her father went to live in Brixton UK. David and Yvette married on st Kitts..would it be a Joseph Manchester who was the vicar then?

[@barbarahartley6448]

@@sisterc6774 I have found the slides of their wedding...it looks beautiful, will get some made into photos so I can view them clearly.

[@richardmcgrath7959]

I think I counted about 6 buildings the structural designs for which were done by yours truly ;) Brisbane McGrath engineering !! The pier you guys entered on was actually the second more beefed-up design done by a Canadian company after the first one was destroyed by a hurricane during its construction.

That's Great! I used to be a high school drafting teacher. Thanks for your comments and please subscribe to our channel.

Sundays most of the places are always closed because most people works from Monday to Saturday and goes to church on Sundays or Sabbaths. Make your next trip in the week or Friday or Saturday the busiest days of the week.

When was this filmed? I don’t see masks but it’s all deserted

[@PortMonkeys]

This was recorded in April 2019. There was just nobody around. But it was a Sunday. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.

[@eric406]

Is there a place to get your passport stamped??

[@PortMonkeys]

We don't know, but we found this on the web: "I'm pretty sure you'd have to go to the Customs House at the Deepwater Port in Bird Rock (about 3/4's of a mile east of the cruise ship dock) to get your passport stamped. You'll be able to see the location of the deepwater dock from your ship, it's just across the bay. I think hours are 8AM to 4PM."

[@archieliburd5482]

Strange the guy fail to realise there are no homeless communities with people living in tents, and people on the streets begging.

We don't mention when there are not homeless. We didn't see any. Lovely island. Thanks for your comments and we hope you subscribe.

That island looks very boring, tell me it ain’t so.

[@PortMonkeys]

We had been here before and done things like catamaran sailing and going snorkeling. This time we decided to walk through town. There is a lot to do on St. Kitts. Thank you for your comments and we hope you subscribe to our channel.

[@blanchecharles9406]

Anthony Blackman, the island is not boring. As you heard the guy said it's Sunday and that's how it's on a day like that because people go to church on that day, and no one works on a Sunday. We serve God. That's who we are. Monday to Saturday, especially Saturday is very busy. So it's not boring.

Saturday 14th May, 2022 Good day to the citizens and non-citizens of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis (TFSKN). Once again, I count it my civic duty to remind you to VOTE for the People’s Labour People (PLP). Citizens and non-citizens of TFSKN, please VOTE for the People’s Labour Party (PLP). Kindly VOTE for the People’s Labour Party (PLP). I thank you.

Today - Monday 16th May, 2022 - is the second (2nd) day in Family Month 2022 which is now being observed by the citizens and residents of The Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis (TFSKN). With pleasure, I gladly consider it my civic duty to encourage citizens and residents of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis to campaign hard for then VOTE for the eight candidates who will be contesting the upcoming General Elections for the People’s Labour Party - PLP. Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris is by far the best person to lead TFSKN. Under the leadership of Dr. the Hon. Timothy S. Harris the Federation continues to make great strides and accomplishments particularly in the areas of Finance specifically as it relates to the National Economy, National Security, Legal Affairs, Industry & Trade, Health, Tourism and Education just to name a few ministries. Please strongly reject, clearly neglect, blatantly avoid and out rightly refuse Mark Brantleyy, Alexis Jefferss, Eric Evelynn, Jonel Powelll, Lindsay Grantt and Shawn Richardss who are all traitors to the maximum and who are fully loaded with self greed and ignorance. Family and friends please also DO NOT SUPPORT any candidate who will be running for The St. Kitts and Nevis Labour Partyy because these people are equally not fit to be in government. Therefore, kindly VOTE for the 8 candidates of the People’s Labour Party - PLP. Once you campaign hard for the People’s Labour Party (PLP) and VOTE for the People’s Labour Party (PLP) to ensure that Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris remains in the office as Prime Minister of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, the Prosperity agenda will be advanced and executed to immensely benefit person in lowest economic group. Hence, please VOTE for the People’s Labour Party - PLP. I thank you.
