Our tourism sector is open for business,\u201d the tourism minister assured visitors.<\/p><p>Following two consecutive years of record growth in cruise ship arrivals to the island, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is preparing for an active cruise season in the months ahead.<\/p><p>Sailing the turquoise waters of the Grenadines is still a favourite way to explore, snorkel and dive among turtles and other marine life.<\/p><p>In a rush against nature to save the world-famous Salt Whistle Bay, the government has restored beaches on the Mayreau Island in its effort to protect sustainable livelihoods and the natural environment.<\/p><p>\u201cTourism industry stakeholders, including hotels, and tour operators, are ready to welcome visitors through existing and additional flights from our major source markets and those sailing to our shores. Collectively, we will continue to restore confidence in our tourism sector and will endeavor to ensure our 32 islands and cays remain safe for all to explore,\u201d Minister James said.<\/p><p>For the upcoming winter season, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines will welcome American Airlines\u2019 daily flights from Miami, and new flights from Charlotte and New York. While Jet Blue commences operations in October from New York, Air Canada continues its four weekly flights out of Toronto and Caribbean Airlines and Virgin Atlantic continue to service New York and London Heathrow, respectively.<\/p><p>For more information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/discoversvg.com\/\">DiscoverSVG.com<\/a> or email the tourism board\u2019s New York office directly at <a href=\"mailto:svgta.us@discoversvg.com\">svgta.us@discoversvg.com<\/a>.<\/p><p>###<\/p><p><strong>About St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG): <\/strong><\/p><p>A collection of 32 islands and cays in the Caribbean, St. Vincent and the Grenadines boasts the best of what the authentic Caribbean is renowned for. The Grenadines which stretch 45 miles south from the main island of St. Vincent, include eight inhabited islands: Young Island, Bequia, Mustique, Canouan, Mayreau, Union Island, Palm Island and Petit St. Vincent (PSV). The Tobago Cays (home of SVG\u2019s national marine park) is a horseshoe shaped reef that shields five deserted islets and is known to have some of the best sailing waters in the world.\u00a0 For more information on the islands of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discoversvg.com\">www.discoversvg.com<\/a><\/p><p><strong><br \/>Media Contact:<\/strong><\/p><p>Shahfreen Elavia, Senior Public Relations Manager<br \/><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">St. Vincent and the Grenadines<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">Represented by VoX International in Canada<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">Email: <\/span><a style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; background-color: #ffffff;\" href=\"mailto:shahfreen@voxinternational.com\">shahfreen@voxinternational.com<\/a><br \/><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">Phone: 416-935-1896 ext. 242<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saint Vincent and the Grenadines welcomes visitors as the island recovers from Hurricane Beryl New York, NY (August 2024) \u2013 \u00a0Visitors continue to discover Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, despite the impact of Hurricane Beryl on the southern part of the island\u2019s archipelago.
