St. Kitts Zipline at Sky Safari — Wingfield Estate Canopy Tour
Launch from a historic sugar estate and fly over rainforest valleys and island ruins on Sky Safari’s zipline tour. Fast, accessible, and steeped in St. Kitts history—this two-hour canopy run pairs adrenaline with local stories.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Platforms and trails are short but uneven—sturdy sneakers or trail shoes make transitions safer and more comfortable.
Hydrate before you go
Bring a filled water bottle; the tour has limited shade and island heat can dehydrate you quickly.
Book transport 24+ hours ahead
Sky Safari offers paid hotel pickups but spots are limited—reserve early to avoid arranging your own ride.
Know the weight limits
You must weigh between 60 and 275 lbs and verify weight at check-in—this is non-negotiable for safety.
