  We (a multi-generational family group ages 7 to 75) loved our trip to Cockleshell Beach. Our driver stopped at the mountaintop for views and picture-taking. He provided us with canned drinks of soda or water to take to the beach. And what I really liked: he gave us the choice of which end of Cockleshell Beach by stopping at each end and describing the differences. The near end had the more upscale restaurant, while the far end had several local food shacks, a few picnic tables, and rental chairs (2 chairs and umbrella for just $20!) We chose the far end. There was plenty of shade for those of us who needed it, yummy local dishes which you could eat at tables under roof for shade, bathroom, good drinks (both alcoholic and virgin), and a nice ice cream shop a couple steps away. All good! We arrived early, at 9:30, and had first choice of chairs and umbrellas. While not a prime snorkeling spot, the water was clear and refreshing. Our two young granddaughters walked the beach looking for shells. Several of the staff made offers of food, drink, massages, etc., but none were pushy. They were all friendly and helpful. Our driver was kind and accommodating, picking us up for the return to our cruise ship at exactly the time we requested. My whole family really loved this relaxing day on St Kitts.

• Nice beach with great prices, plus Timothy Hill is gorgeous

  It was basically a drive to and from the beach, by way of Timothy Hill, which is a beautiful view. Our driver didn't offer up any conversation or interesting information unless we spoke up first, and then he shared a few tidbits with us. He dropped us off at the GOOD side of the beach -- the righthand side -- which was much less crowded and the beach chairs/umbrella were only $5 for each person, not $20 as some are saying. Plus, the drinks were incredibly inexpensive! The beach itself was scenic. Lots of seaweed washed up onto the sand, but that's just nature. We enjoyed our day overall.

  Great option. Learned about area and had photo opportunities. Then able to spend 4 hours on the beach. Got to beach early before the crowds and guide was helpful.

  Good taxi service with a very friendly driver. The soft drink was appreciated. Good that the offer was there to agree a pick up time convenient with the whole group. The beach was lovely but not as clean as some others we had visited previously.

  Our guide was on time, where he said he’d be and was extremely nice. We enjoyed Elvis very much. It was exactly as described.

• This time was just a ride to Beach with nothing else like the last time.

  We did this excursion a couple months ago and it was great. This time our driver told is to meet him back at a location at 9am. At 855 we were informed he left without us and another driver met us and said he would get us to the beach. There was no informative tour, just a ride to the beach. There was no alcoholic beverage offered at the end, just waters or coca cola. We had a lovely day at Reggae Beach but the journey was a disappointment for my friend who had never been to St. Kitts before. We had to beg for a photo stop at the st. Kitts sign and the driver seemed annoyed.

• Great excursion with family of 7

  Directions to the meetup point were easy to follow and we found Elvis immediately with the sunflower sign. His van was comfortable, cool and spacious for 7. The history of the island was nice as we toured the roads. The roads are pretty well paved compared to St. Thomas and St. John. We stopped at Timothy Point for the iconic pictures of the Atlantic/Caribbean separated by a thin strip of land. The kids loved getting pictures with the monkeys. *pro tip* just have a handful of $1s or $5s for the tip. Otherwise don’t make eye contact with the handlers and stay away from them. Elvis took us to Rush Slowly beach bar. Get there early if you want a prime beach chair choice. We arrived by 10ish and it filled up quickly. Great food and beverage choices. Prices are tourist influenced, we drank and ate a lot, total of $250 amongst 4 adults and 3 kids, but we had a great time there. The beach is nice, but rocky in some spots. My son found a lot of bottle caps, so watch where you step. There’s lots of shade available if needed. We decided to leave earlier than expected, so we called Elvis and he was happy to come pick us up.

  

• Great Driver and Narrator

  Elvis Williams was our tour guide. He was very friendly and informative. A great tour guide. The tour start point was at the Gold Mine store right to the left of the dock exit/ entrance. Easy to find but the sign Elvis held could be confusing. It said beach taxi, not cockelshell beach tour. You have to ask. The beach there is beautiful and there are lots of chairs/umbrellas for rent. I would suggest going to the first stop or the middle of the beach.

  

• Excellent trip to a nice...

  Excellent trip to a nice beach. Our driver, Elvis, was very punctual and gave an interesting and informative commentary as we drove to our destination. He gave us time to stop at a spectacular view point for photographs. Generally an excellent trip.
