Booby Island, named after the brown booby seabirds that nest there, is a protected nature reserve just off the coast of Nevis. Accessible only by boat, the island offers excellent snorkeling around its coral reefs and a chance to see seabirds in their natural habitat. The surrounding waters are home to sea turtles and colorful fish, making it a favorite spot for eco-tours and day trips from Charlestown.
