BASSETERRE, St. Kitts Tourism stands to benefit from a mutual agreement that will allow Europeans and nationals of St. Kitts and Nevis and three other Caribbean countries to travel hassle-free or without the need for visas.

One European website sees the arrangement between St. Kitts and Nevis, Barbados, the Bahamas and Antigua and Barbuda as helping Europeans to escape to the sunny Caribbean with visa-free travel to exotic beaches.
