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

But the lack of tourism also means you can expect beautiful stretches of unspoilt sand.<\/p>\n

One of the most famous is Lover's Beach, which visitors have said has "stunning, white sands as far as the eye can see".<\/p>\n

And many visit to climb the active volcano Nevis Peak, with heights of 3,232ft.<\/p>\n

Make sure to plan ahead though – many shops close over the weekend.<\/p>\n

It's also known for being the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton<\/span>, with museums celebrating his life and legacy that resulted in the famous Broadway show.<\/p>\n

Luxury travel expert Louisa Gehring, told CN Traveler that Nevis is the "Goldilocks of the Caribbean".<\/p>\n

She explained: "[Nevis is] easy to get to but still enough of a trip to keep the nonstop-flight-only masses away. <\/p>\n

"It has beautiful beaches, while offering a safe environment to eat in off-property restaurants and explore the island outside of the resort.<\/p>\n

"It feels off the beaten path, yet is home to true luxury resorts and charming hotels."<\/p>\n
