St Kitts welcomed four cruise ships to its shores bringing approximately 11,000 cruise passengers. The four ships which made calls at Port Zante on Wednesday included Britannia, Celebrity Apex, Marella Explorer and the Mein Schiff 2. All the cruise ships have previously made cruise calls to the island nation bringing an influx of tourists. 

With multiple ships docking at the shores of St Kitts in a single day, the people of St Kitts had the opportunity to put out the best of their offerings to the tourists. The officials have shared that all the passengers and crew members who had arrived on island aboard the four cruise ships disembarked. 

The passengers were given the best of the St Kitts and Nevis hospitality with the members of the community giving the people a glimpse of the culture, hospitality and beauty of the island nation. The island has been witnessing a highly successful cruise tourism season with multiple cruise ships arriving at the port multiple times in a week. 

The cruise arrivals have been a great stimulant to businesses and tourism industry as people visit locations across the island on guided and booked tours, taxi services and restaurants also get to have significant business as the people explore the island for the remarkable history and culture that they can learn about.

The stakeholders of Port Zante shared some images from the cruise day Wednesday where the people were seen coming on island and exploring the shops, souvenirs, food and travel offerings of the island. The passengers were also seen visiting the beaches and  enjoying sunbathing throughout their stay on the island. 

The arrival of an influx of passengers to the island aboard multiple ships highlights the positive growth of the St Kitts and Nevis Tourism sector as the island is turning out to be a popular spot for cruise lines to include in their annual itineraries.
