SWOT Analysis of Caribbean Tourism Industry 2012

The Caribbean Tourism Report examines the enormous long-term potential of the market, given its reputation as a major tourism destination, but analyses the impact of a slowdown in Europe – one of its major markets – especially as the Caribbean is a relatively expensive holiday destination. The report examines how best to maximise returns in the Caribbean tourism market, capitalising on the region’s wide variety of tourism destinations and well developed tourism infrastructure. The report also assesses differences between the key island groupings and which are recovering more swiftly. We also analyse the key players in the Caribbean market, both domestic and foreign, and the development strategies they are employing to maximise returns during the economic slowdown.

Key Findings
Data released by the Caribbean Tourism Organisation (CTO) in July 2012 showed the region experiencing a mixed first half of the year. Eight countries have so far reported full first-half arrivals data and of those, all but one country (Barbados) registered positive growth. This ranged from high levels of growth in Guyana, Belize and the Dominican Republic – 17.9% year-on-year (y-o-y), 8.5% and 7.7% yo- y respectively – to lower growth, such as 1.6% y-o-y in Martinique.
This is a positive start to the year, given that low season began in March/April, and will have pulled down the average for first-half growth. With the hurricane season (June to October) now approaching, tourism in the hurricane zone countries is likely to remain subdued until the traditional high season begins again in October and in the run-up to Christmas. BMI remains positive regarding the region’s growth prospects in 2012, although we caution that the European economic slowdown will continue to hinder efforts to return to pre-2008 levels of tourism growth.

Focus On Belize
The small country of Belize is on the very edge of the Caribbean, located on the eastern seaboard of the Central American isthmus, bordering Mexico and Guatemala. The English-speaking country is a member of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) and a popular stop-off location for cruise ships moving from the central Caribbean to Mexico and the US. Belize’s geographical variety and proximity to the US are making it an increasingly attractive location for US tourists. In addition, Belize’s constitutional links to the UK means that it benefits from good air links, facilitating tourism from the UK as well. As a result,
tourist arrivals to Belize rose by an impressive 8.5% y-o-y in the first six months of 2012, making it one of the Caribbean countries experiencing highest levels of growth so far in 2012. Caribbean Tourism Report Q4 2012 © Business Monitor International Ltd Page 6

Key Changes Made
BMI analyses the tourist arrivals across the Caribbean for the first half of 2012, assessing the drivers behind strong performance in some markets and weaker in others. BMI looks at the expanding hotel industry across the region, as groups such as Marriott plan to increase their presence in the Caribbean. BMI examines the financial performance of troubled Caribbean Airlines and the impact that the purchase of Air Jamaica has had on its financial standing.

Caribbean Tourism Industry Report Q3 2012

The Caribbean Tourism Report examines the enormous long-term potential of the market, given its reputation as a major tourism destination, but analyses the impact of a slowdown in Europe – one of its major markets – especially as the Caribbean is a relatively expensive holiday destination.

The report examines how best to maximise returns in the Caribbean tourism market, capitalising on the region’s wide variety of tourism destinations and well developed tourism infrastructure. The report also assesses differences between the key island groupings and which are recovering more swiftly. We also analyse the key players in the Caribbean market, both domestic and foreign, and the development strategies they are employing to maximise returns during the economic slowdown.

Key Findings
Data released by the Caribbean Tourism Organisation (CTO) in April 2012 showed that the region enjoyed a good start to the year, with only one country experiencing a decline in tourist arrivals; the lowest number of countries to do so since the financial crisis hit in 2007. This country was Dominica, with an arrivals decline of 5.2% year-on-year (y-o-y). However, Dominica has as yet only reported
arrivals data for January, meaning that arrivals may pick up in the rest of the traditional high season. Of the other countries, only Aruba and Barbados have reported data for the first quarter of 2011, experiencing arrivals growth of 2.4% y-o-y and 2.3% y-o-y respectively, Of those reporting January- February arrivals data, Guyana experienced a surge in arrivals growth of 18.7% y-o-y, followed by Martinique (10.9%), the US Virgin Islands (9.0%) and Anguilla (7.7%). Although this data is only for two or three months, it does indicate that the improving arrivals trend in late 2011 is continuing into 2012, boding well for arrivals throughout the year.

Focus On Guyana
Guyana is one of least well known destinations in the Caribbean Community (Caricom), of which it is a member. However, Guyana is located beyond the Caribbean, on the South American continent, and neighbours Venezuela, Brazil and Suriname. As well as its links to the Caribbean, Guyana is being marketed as an unusual route for visitors to enter South America, with its land links meaning that a visit  to Guyana can easily lead on to Brazil and other South American countries. Moreover, Guyana’s status as the only English-speaking country in South America has allowed it to promote itself particularly in the UK and North America.

Key Changes Made
BMI analyses the tourist arrivals across the Caribbean for the first months of 2012, assessing the drivers
behind strong performance in some markets and weaker in others.
BMI looks at the deteriorating financial position of Caribbean Airlines, and the difficulty it is
experiencing in merging the operations of Air Jamaica into its own.
BMI reports on the financial results of major players in the region such as Royal Caribbean Cruises and
MeliĆ” Hotels International, and how these companies are likely to perform in 2012.
