NASSAU, Bahamas — International arrivals to The Bahamas grew 10.2 percent year-to-date, according to statistics released by the Ministry of Tourism and Aviation (MOTA) yesterday.
The ministry expects tourism growth to continue as bookings are up 6.7 percent over the August to October period and show a ten percent increase for the final two months of 2018.
“International arrivals in The Bahamas show a solid growth of 10.2 percent year-to-date, maintaining the tourism turnaround that began in October of 2017. The growth trend is driven by strong performance from the US but a 29.6 percent increase through July in arrivals from Canada is also contributing to the overall growth,” said a MOTA statement. http://www.tribune242.com/news/2018/aug/20/tourism-numbers-enjoy-double-digit-growth/?news
