🇰🇳 Saint Kitts and Nevis for 🇦🇹 AT citizens

Saint Kitts & Nevis has a simple money hack: the East Caribbean dollar (XCD) is pegged to the US dollar at a fixed rate (about 2.70 XCD per 1 USD). US dollars are widely accepted, but you may get change in XCD—paying in XCD (or at least knowing the peg) helps you avoid bad ‘tourist math’ on small purchases.

For island-hopping, the passenger ferry between St Kitts and Nevis is the practical choice for day trips. Check the operator schedule (it can vary), then ride Basseterre/Port Zante ↔ Charlestown without needing a flight or an expensive private transfer.
