the years.
In addition
, in 2010 most of the guests stayed on the island,
while
in 2017 the majority of tourists stayed on a cruise ship. In the year 2010,
this
particular Caribbean island had exactly 1
million
visitors and
this
number
raised to 1.5
million
in 2012,
then
proceeded with the same tendency, reaching above 2.5
million
in 2016.
However
, the peak was in 2017, when more than 3.5
million
tourists visited the area. In 2010, nearly three-quarters of
this
million
slept on the island, and the remaining quarter stayed on a cruise ship. After 2011 there was a slight growth in the
number
of people, who preferred to rent something on the ground and
this
count reached 1.5
million
in the years between 2013 and 2017, with a slide decline in 2016 (1.25
million
).
Thus
the increasing
number
of boat residents, which extended through the years and reached two
million
in 2017, overtook the count.
