2024 Proving To Be Saint Lucia’s Best-Ever Tourism Year

The performance of Saint Lucia’s vital tourism industry so far for 2024 is proving to be the best. The disclosure came from Tourism Minister Dr. Ernest Hilaire. ” If all goes well and we are expecting  this year to be our best year on record,” Hilaire told reporters. Speaking at Monday’s regular pre-cabinet press briefing, the Castries South MP revealed that Saint Lucia was doing better than in 2019.  “I believe we’re up seven percent on 2019, which is very good, and we have jazz coming up in May, carnival in July,” the minister told reporters. Regarding the carnival, Hilaire said from all indications, the 2024 event would be the biggest ever. In addition, he noted additional events, such as more cricket in September and Creole Heritage in October. “Once we start off the GPH development, we have  so much coming on – the Grand Hyatt in Choiseul. Saint Lucia is really going to be enjoying a special period in terms of economic development,” Hilaire observed. & & & & & The article 2024 Proving To Be Saint Lucia’s Best-Ever Tourism Year is from St. Lucia Times.
