Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas to visit Grenada
Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas will visit Grenada’s port on Tuesday, July 9th, and the Grenada Tourism Authority is delighted to welcome her. This sea bridge’s presence brings a two-fold operation to our country: to provide essential relief aid following the passage of Hurricane Beryl and a visit from 2,377 tourists, a positive development for Grenada’s economic endurance.
The advent of Rhapsody of the Seas illustrates the resilience and unity of our island nation. The ship’s personnel will deliver essential supplies, such as 15 tons of fuel, to support the recovery efforts. This substantial donation of petroleum will be crucial in operating essential services, demonstrating Royal Caribbean’s strong partnership and support during this difficult period.
The disembarkation of passengers underscores that Grenada is still accessible for tourism and relief aid. This surge in tourism is a testimony to the island’s enduring allure and a critical impetus for the local economy as we continue to rebuild.
Randall Dolland, Chairman of the Grenada Tourism Authority, said, “We are profoundly appreciative of the unwavering support and solidarity demonstrated by Royal Caribbean and all of our partners.” “The depth of our partnership is emphasized by the visitor arrivals and their assistance during our time of need.” This sends a distinct message to the global community that Grenada welcomes visitors and is open for business. We will reassemble with greater strength than ever.
The disembarkation of passengers clearly indicates that Grenada remains accessible to tourism on this path to recovery. This increase in tourism is a testament to the global appeal of our island and a critical stimulus to our local economy as we continue to reconstruct, benefiting all stakeholders. Cosmos Williams, President of the National Taxi Association, asserts that the assistance of our international allies is essential for the economic well-being of our community and a tangible demonstration of the resilience of Grenadians. “We will collaborate to guarantee that visitors have an unforgettable experience in the stunning country of Grenada as they traverse our shores.”
The Grenada Tourism Authority cordially invites all individuals to commemorate the advent of Rhapsody of the Seas and its passengers. This represents a substantial stride forward as we continue our recovery endeavours and indicates a promising and prosperous future for Grenada.
