Saint Anne Sandy Point

Saint Anne Sandy Point is the northwest coastal parish of St Kitts, centered on Sandy Point Town and the historic landscape below Brimstone Hill.

Overview

Saint Anne Sandy Point covers the northwest coast of St Kitts around Sandy Point Town. Sandy Point Area is the smaller local label, while the parish covers the wider district around that corner of the island.

The parish includes the main northwest settlement, the nearby shoreline, and the road and hillside setting that leads toward Brimstone Hill. Those linked elements give it a strong town center without reducing the parish to the town alone.

Its distinct identity comes from the combination of history and geography. Saint Anne Sandy Point is one of the clearest west-coast parish references on St Kitts because the town, coast, and fortress-side landscape are all closely tied together there.
