On St. Kitts and Nevis, a two island nation separated by a two mile waterway, nothing may be built taller than the tallest palm tree. Nature reins supreme on these islands. St. Kitts is 68 square miles of volcanic mountains and rain forest surrounded by fields of sugar cane, while circular Nevis at 36 square miles has a central peak that runs into rolling green hills decorated with botanical gardens and a pink-sand hem.
