Executive summary
We used to be seven...
Guadeloupe is the northernmost territory of the Windward Islands group in the Caribbean, and is an Overseas French Department. Until July 2007, it consisted of seven islands: the two islands of Grande-Terre and Basse-Terre; the nearby islands of Marie Galante; La Desirade; Iles des Saintes; and Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy. As a result of a referendum at this time however, Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy decided to become two new and independent collectivités d’outre-mer (Overseas French Departments).
Do not forget: Guadeloupe is not a country!
The fact that Guadeloupe is an operational overseas department of France is the most important factor in analysing the islands’ travel and tourism industry. This means that all laws, taxes and business functions are the same in Guadeloupe as in any other region of France. French tourists are equivalent to around 74% of inbound flows.
Strong competition!
For most of the Caribbean islands, tourism is their main activity, with the majority of visitors coming from the US and Europe. Thus, competition between the islands is strong. Cuba and the Dominican Republic are the main competitors. Guadeloupe, as well as Martinique and French Guiana, suffer some commercial disadvantages due to them being Overseas French Departments, because they are generally more expensive and use the relatively strong Euro currency.
Flying high
Air Caraïbes, based in Pointe-a-Pitre (Grande-Terre island), operates as the “national” airline. This company, which is showing progressive growth, belongs to the French group Dubreuil. In 2006, it transported over 910,000 passengers, employed 420 workers and generated EUR190 million in revenue. It operates over 100 daily flights from Pointe-a-Pitre to several countries in the Antillean arc, as well as transatlantic flights to Paris. New flights to Costa Rica and Panama are planned for December 2007, along with weekly charter flights to Stockholm and Copenhagen, in association with the Scandinavian tour operator Langley Travel.
