Preliminary arrivals for January to December 2015 show an 8.6% decline in stay over visitation. 74,474 stay over visitor arrivals were recorded compared to 81,511 in 2014. The passage of Tropical Storm Erika at the end of August had a ripple effect on arrivals for the last four months of 2015, to include loss of key hotel stock, most notable the 35 rooms at Jungle Bay Resort and Spa, as well as the cancellation of the 19th World Creole Music Festival.
