Improving Saint Lucia's yachting sector

Agencies collaborate with a view to making the yachting sector more competitive within the Caribbean region.

The Ministry of Tourism, Heritage, and Creative Industries, and the Saint Lucia Tourist Board (SLTB) have partnered to enhance the island’s yachting sector.
The two agencies convened a meeting on June 1 with officials from the Saint Lucia Air and Sea Ports Authority (SLASPA), the Soufriere Marine Management Association (SMMA), and the customs and immigration departments to discuss issues specific to yachting facilitation. Many issues facing the yachting industry where highlighted and discussed with a view to making the sector more competitive within the Caribbean region.
As a first step to address issues relating to the sector and in particular, product enhancement, yachting facilitation, and data collection, the parties agreed to reactivate the yachting committee to serve as the mechanism to pull all related agencies together with the objective of growing the yachting sector.
The first meeting of the yachting committee is slated for the first week of July.
