Atlantis Submarines Barbados supports Caribbean Tourism Month

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – Atlantis Submarines Barbados has thrown its support behind Caribbean Tourism Month (#CTM2015), the Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) initiative aimed at raising awareness among the people of the Caribbean of the importance of tourism to the region.

In observance of the month Atlantis Submarines is offering a number of specials, including offers in celebration of Barbados’ anniversary of independence and regional carrier Liat’s 59th birthday. It has also declared the month of November – Caribbean Tourism Month – as hospitality month, offering anyone working in the tourism sector in Barbados complimentary dives with special rates for their families.
“Atlantis Submarines Barbados is very pleased to support Caribbean Tourism Month. Caribbean tourism is extremely important to the social and economic development of the region and we should take pause in November to truly appreciate why our natural and human resources are so attractive to the millions that flock to our shores,” said general manager Roseanne Myers.

“Take a tour or adventure in your island, plan a staycation, really get close to what hundreds of us do for a living every day to entertain guests, create employment and help to sustain our existence. We live where many crave to vacation and in November we should try to re-energise ourselves, our staff and our publics about our product so we can energise others to continue to invest in a Caribbean holiday. That is what Atlantis Submarines Barbados intends to do to support CTO’s initiative,” she added.

For Caribbean Tourism Month Atlantis Submarines is extending a 59% discount to regional travellers holding a Liat boarding pass stub for the October through November period in celebration of the airline’s 59th birthday serving the region, while $49 promotion for Barbados’ 49 anniversary of independence has also been launched to encourage residents in Barbados “to see first-hand what we offer to visitors everyday on cruise and who visit us by air,” Ms. Myers revealed.
The CTO and its member countries and partners have organized events and activities in observance of the month, including a social media marathon featuring different countries throughout the month.

Sponsors include Atlantis Submarines Barbados, Liat, Caribbean Airlines and Spice Island Beach Resort in Grenada.
