What an exciting day for Christophe Harbour as the first pile for the new superyacht marina has been driven, and construction is officially underway.  An official groundbreaking ceremony is planned for the 20th of June with government officials and local digintaries to celebrate the launch of this much-anticipated marina project.

American Bridge Company is the main contractor working in association with Devcon Ltd. Both firms have been onsite for more than a month prepping the site for active construction and final excavation. The first phase of the marina , which includes the first 24 berths up to 65 meters, is expected to be complete by the end of this year. We look forward to welcoming vessels to our marina in...

Most folks with whom we spoke today are keen on Christophe Harbour and happy to hear that the superyacht marina is expected to come online for next season, albeit with limited services. We're sensing a continued uptick in the superyacht industry, and it seems our timing just might be spot on.

The interest in our marina berths continues to be high, and we're happy to have sold 8 of the 11 available in this first phase. Dragage Caraibe will soon arrive in St. Kitts to complete the remaining excavation work in the entry channel and yacht basin, and...
