A TINY island in the Caribbean has remained off the beaten track for tourists – unless you're a celebrity.<\/p>\n
While many of the islands are popular with Brits, such as Jamaica and Barbados, there is one that is yet to see the same boom in holidaymakers.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
Nevis, one of the smaller islands, has just 12,000 people living on the island, which is only 36 square miles in size.<\/p>\n
Not only are there no international flights there, but there are no cruise ships either, and barely any resort hotels.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
So don't expect to see many Brits there, as there are no direct UK flights.<\/p>\n
Instead, you will have to fly to St Kitts, which has a stopover of Antigua, followed by a boat ride.<\/p>\n

Yvette Thomas-Henry, who runs a resort on the island, said Nevis was an "open secret".<\/p>\n
Despite this, it's popular with famous A-Listers including Britney Spears, who visited with her then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake<\/span>, Beyonce, Jay Z<\/span> and Oprah Winfrey.<\/p>\n Back in the 1990s, Princess Diana also visited the island with Prince<\/span> William and Prince Harry.<\/p>\n One of the only resort hotels is the Four Seasons, with the rest beign smaller, local-run hotels.<\/p>\n <\/picture>EAT UP <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>SOMEWHERE NEUM <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>PACK IT IN <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>TRI AGAIN <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\nMost read in News Travel<\/h2>\n
