Monday, February 20, 2017
Bridgetown.- The Caribbean tourist destinations received last year a record number of more than 29 million international visitors.
That level, according to the Caribbean Tourism Organization (OTC), represents a year-on-year growth of 4.2 percent, higher than the world average (3.9 percent).
Coupled with this, leisure industry revenues were at an all-time high of $ 35.5 billion, up by nearly 3.5 percent.
The United States remained the main tourist-sending country with 14.6 million visitors, while Europe recorded the highest rate of growth.
UNWTO provides specialized technical assistance in the fields of market management, research, statistics, education and training, as well as for the sustainable development of the sector.
