Executive summary
2007 brings a temporary Common Visa Policy for CARICOM member states
Like most CARICOM (Caribbean Community) member states, Grenada participated in a Common Visa Policy that ran between January 15th and May 15th 2007. This policy was part of a wider arrangement to facilitate the free movement of people during the Cricket World Cup. In this regard, the countries which participated in the policy agreed to function as a ‘Single Domestic Space’ during the time period in question. While the Common Visa Policy was ostensibly for those travelling to Cricket World Cup matches, people visiting the Caribbean for other purposes were also able to avail of it.
Cricket World Cup proves a boon for Grenada’s travel and tourism market
It is impossible to fully understand the culture of Grenada without considering island’s fondness for cricket. The sport is played everywhere on the island, at all times of the day and night. Accordingly, the decision to make Grenada one of the hosts of the Cricket World Cup had a very positive impact on the local travel and tourism market. Arrivals increased strongly as a direct result of the World Cup in 2007, while the transportation, car rental and travel retail products all showed healthy growth in current value terms.
Tourism operators seek to attract more wedding and honeymoon visitors
Towards the end of the review period, travel and tourism operators and authorities in Grenada sought to appeal to the growing number of people worldwide wishing to get married while on vacation. Most notably, hotels on the island began offering attractive wedding and honeymoon packages in order to draw in more visitors. This trend continued to gain momentum in 2007, with the local Tourist Bureau pursuing a number of measures to position Grenada as a fantastic place for visitors to get married.
New projects should attract more eco-tourists and high income visitors
The Levera Bay area on the north of the island of Grenada is full of wildlife and vegetation. Over the forecast period, this area will be transformed by a US$112 million project that will not only draw attention to the many existing nature/eco-tourism attractions on the island, but also help to develop jobs for the local community. At the same time, the government and the local Ministry of Tourism will encourage the development of new luxury resorts on the island in order to attract higher income tourists.
