Pinney's Beach, Coastal beach in Saint Thomas Lowland Parish, Saint Kitts and Nevis
Pinney's Beach is a coastal area along the western shore of Nevis in Saint Thomas Lowland Parish, stretching about three miles with soft sand and calm waters. The beach sits near Cotton Ground village and features gentle conditions suitable for swimming and water activities.
The name comes from a colonial-era estate that grew sugar and other crops during British settlement. That property left a mark on the area and gave the beach its current name.
Local vendors set up along the shore selling fresh Caribbean seafood and organizing beach gatherings throughout the year. These spots become places where residents and visitors meet to share meals and spend time together.
Several resorts along the coast provide beach access, equipment rentals, and water activities for visitors. The facilities make it easy for travelers to spend a full day enjoying the beach with various amenities.
The beach looks directly across to Saint Kitts island with Mount Liamuiga rising prominently from the water beyond. This view gives visitors a close look at the neighboring island's geography and volcanic shape.
