The Southeast Peninsula

The Southeast Peninsula of Saint Kitts island stretches approximately 14km (9 miles) southeast from the country's capital, Basseterre.

The Pennisula projects into the strait which separates the island from Nevis island. At the start of the Pennisula there is an isthmus which at its narrowest point, is less than one kilometre wide.

Notable features of the Peninsula include the Country's largest lake, the Great Salt Pond, St. Anthony's Peak and Turtle Beach.
