Caribelle Batik befindet sich in der Hauptstadt Basseterre. Sie können selbst dorthin fahren (es befindet sich an der Kreuzung von Sugar Factory Road und Taylor Road) oder sich für eine Tour anmelden, die in Romney Manor Halt macht und Ihnen Zeit gibt, die Produkte von Caribelle Batik zu durchstöbern.
Caribelle Batik is located at Romney Manor in St. Kitts’ capital city Basseterre at the crossroads of Sugar Factory Road and Taylor Road. Walk, drive, take a taxi, or go as part of a tour of Romney Manor. Parking is available on site.
The boutique is open Monday through Friday, from morning to late afternoon. Peak season runs from December to April, during which time the biggest event of the year, National Carnival (also known as Sugar Mas), ignites the island in the run up to Christmas and New Year. For a more quiet time, visit between May and July when crowds dwindle and temperatures are not as hot and humid.
Next door to Caribelle Batik is the oldest sugar estate in the Caribbean. Founded in 1625, Wingfield Estate was up and working until the 1900s, churning out sugar at such a high rate that they elevated the status of the island in the region. The estate’s original owners was Sam Jefferson, the great-great-great-grandfather of Thomas Jefferson. During a visit, admire the ruins of the sugar mills and distillery.
