For years the most popular beach in St Kitts with locals, Frigate Bay South has had stern competition since the 1989 opening of the south-east peninsula highway, which made an assortment of superb white-sand beaches easily accessible. But Frigate Bay is still home to St Kitts' major tourist hotels and most of the island's big houses, and over the past decade a string of beachfront bars, known collectively as 'The Strip', has sprung up. The bars have become a big attraction for locals and tourists, many of whom enjoy taking a dip and a drink – not necessarily in that order.
