Minister of Tourism Marsha Henderson heads a high-level delegation of tourism officials to major European markets. The team works to elevate St. Kitts and Nevis’s profile in the global tourism landscape during visits across the continent.
Strategic Meetings in Europe
Tourism leaders from St. Kitts and Nevis engage with European counterparts over two days, March 23 and 24, 2026. Discussions center on forging robust partnerships with travel operators, cruise executives, and diaspora groups.

Showcasing Tourism Success
Minister Henderson emphasizes St. Kitts and Nevis’s strong performance in international tourism. The nation ranks third among 18 Caribbean ports for Costa Cruises, demonstrating growth in operational efficiency, port standards, and visitor experiences.
Officials highlight ongoing efforts to solidify the island’s status as a turnaround port through comprehensive development strategies.
Pathways for Growth and Partnerships
Stakeholder talks explore long-term collaborations, expansion opportunities, and increased cruise capacity. These alliances support St. Kitts and Nevis’s ambition to become a premier homeport destination.
Successful partnerships would direct cruise passengers to board and disembark in St. Kitts, boosting air travel, extending visitor stays, and aiding local small and medium-sized businesses.
