Curaçao: “Great Momentum” for Tourism Recovery

Curaçao reported just under 31,000 stayover visitors in AUG, according to new data from the Curaçao Hotel and Tourism Association. The organization notes that these numbers represent around 79 per cent of the pre-pandemic AUG 2019 stayover visitor numbers. “With over 30,000 stayover arrivals for August, there is now great momentum in our tourism recovery,” said Paul Pennicook, CEO of the Curacao Tourist Board. “On a year to date basis we are almost even with 2020 arrivals and as this trend continues we will have positive growth over 2020 in a matter of days.” However, the island notes that it continues to see slow growth from its important U.S. market. Of the nearly 31,000 total visitors, 22,770 came from Europe, and just 4,349 visitors came from the U.S.
