Last update: 2 hours ago

Tourism Momentum: Dominica has been named one of the Caribbean’s fastest-growing tourism destinations by TravelPulse, with visitor arrivals up 15% in 2025 to 496,635 and overnight arrivals up 19% to 99,846, as the island leans into authenticity and wellness. Wellness Push: The Ministry of Tourism and the Discover Dominica Authority launched the 2026 Tourism Awareness Program under “Positioning Dominica through Wellness Tourism,” running through July with community-led engagement. New Tourism Leadership: Discover Dominica Authority appointed Wendy Lake as Destination Marketing Manager, effective June 1, to drive destination visibility and sustainable visitor growth. Climate Resilience Funding: Government launched DOMCREP, a US$25M climate resilience project in Marigot, targeting water security, early warning, disaster management and community capacity in eight vulnerable communities. Fire Damage in Salisbury: A bushfire in Grand Savanne, Salisbury destroyed crops and water infrastructure over about 2.5 acres, including watermelon, pumpkin, eggplant and bell pepper, plus 2,500 gallons of storage capacity. Regional Banking Watch: A UWI Global Campus lecture urged Caribbean banks to stay compliant to avoid derisking. CHTA Visa Concern: Newly elected CHTA president-elect Gregor Nassief says he and his wife were denied US visas, raising worries for regional tourism and airlift talks.
