Two popular island destinations have recently eased their entry restrictions for international travelers.
The Caribbean nation of St. Kitts and Nevis has removed its travel restrictions for tourists, and the Atlantic island of Bermuda has eased some of its travel restrictions for unvaccinated travelers from this week. We’ve got all the details (including some great things to do and travel deals!) for you below.
St. Kitts and Nevis Scraps All Entry Requirements
Firstly, St. Kitts and Nevis eliminated all Covid-related entry restrictions for international travelers and the Caribbean getaway destination is ready to welcome back tourists.
The only thing that visitors to St. Kitts have to do is fill out and submit the official Online Immigration and Customs ED Form before departure and present the receipt upon arrival at the airport.
To celebrate the reopening for all travelers, the tourism board is offering free nights on a ton of different hotel stays, such as 3 free nights on a 7-day booking.
From resorts stays to boutique, seaside getaways, there are beautiful accommodations to choose from across the islands. Sounds enticing? You can check out their “Sweet Side of Summer” promotion here.

Bermuda Removes Exception Form Requirement For Unvaccinated Travelers
As of August 22, 2022, officials in Bermuda have updated the requirements for all unvaccinated travelers entering the country.
