Kingston – St Vincent and the Grenadines is expecting 224 cruise calls this season after having none last year.
The first cruise ship, Seaborne Odyssey, is expected to call at Port Elizabeth next on August 7, Minister of Tourism Carlos James said, noting that the ship is hoping to call every other Saturday until October.
“This is, of course, the early stages and we are expecting to see more calls being added to St Vincent and the Grenadines as a destination. We anticipate additional calls and, of course, this is subject to, as I stated very early, the caveat as it relates to what transpires with COVID-19, both locally and internationally,” he said.

A date for the re-opening of schools seems imminent.
This is the expectation on the heels of a meeting of health and education officials that was expected to be held on March 10, last Wednesday, to discuss the issue of the resumption of schools across the country.
THE VINCENTIAN is not privy to any decisions of that meeting, not for the want of trying.
According to Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves, Chief Medical Officer Dr Simone Keizer-Beache and members of her team, along with top officials from the ministry of education, were expected to discuss the issue, following which they would advise Cabinet on the way forward.
