British possessions until the 1980s, Nevis and St Kitts are currently small independent islands complete with UN membership. In recent years their unspoiled natural beauty and white sand beaches have been discovered by tourists, with a large number of celebrities among them, including Britney Spears, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Sarah Jessica Parker, Danny Glover and others. Out of the two islands, Nevis is quieter, and hence, more suitable for peaceful rest and relaxation.
