According to statistics from Kayak, an online travel company, thousands of people in the United States have chosen the Caribbean for vacation after being vaccinated against Covid-19.

As vaccination rates increased, tourism in the Caribbean began to flourish again. According to the guidelines of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), people who are fully immunized can travel freely without needing to be isolated or tested for Covid-19. However, some countries still have restrictions when reopening, travelers should check precautions before booking a tour. People in the Caribbean began to welcome tourists back after the vaccination plan was implemented. In addition to limiting the spread of the virus in the community, this is considered a good sign for tourism recovery after a year of delay. 57% of survey respondents on a financial website said they had plans for a trip in 2021. 16% said they booked a tour as soon as they heard the Covid-19 vaccine rollout had started. begin. The Caribbean is the most searched international destination in US airports. In 2019, more than 31 million people visited the Caribbean, half of which were from the US. At the end of 2020, like many other tourist areas, the Caribbean region was also heavily impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Hugh Riley, former head of the Caribbean Tourism Office, told the New York Times: “The lack of visitors for a long period of time has brought great hardship to people across the Caribbean. Countries bordering this area must close their borders until a vaccine is produced or a way to address the risk.” With white sandy beaches, green trees and clear water, the Caribbean is an ideal destination chosen by many tourists, according to Insider. Riselle Celestina, who was born and raised on the island of Curacao, south of the Caribbean Sea, says this is a place worth living for those who love nature. In recent years, the island has become more popular with tourists and boats, Celestina said. Visitors can visit and explore lesser-known places, such as Petite Plage and Happy Bay beaches. Not only famous for its blockbuster series about pirates, the Caribbean also attracts visitors with its impressive natural scenery. “Each island in the Caribbean is beautiful in different ways. They may have a lot in common, but the lifestyle of the people on the island such as the way they talk, dress, food, scenery is different.” Celestina added.
