The given line graph illustrates the

number

of

tourists

visiting a specific Caribbean

island

over the

period

from 2010 to 2017.

Overall

, the graph demonstrates a significant upward trend in the

number

of

tourists

, with the total

number

of visitors increasing steadily throughout the

period

. A notable feature is the gradual

rise

in both the

number

of

tourists

staying on the

island

and those opting for

cruise

ship

accommodations.In detail, the total

number

of

tourists

visiting the

island

increased from 1

million

in 2010 to 3.5

million

in 2017.

This

growth was driven by substantial increases in both categories of

tourists

. Those staying on the

island

began at 0.75

million

in 2010 and saw a consistent

rise

, reaching 1.5

million

by 2013.

However

, from 2013 onwards, the

number

plateaued, remaining stable until 2015, before climbing again to reach 1.5

million

by the end of the

period

.

On the other hand

,

tourists

choosing to stay on

cruise

ships exhibited more dramatic growth. Starting at just 0.25

million

in 2010, their numbers grew rapidly, surpassing 1.5

million

by 2015. From

this

point, the

number

continued to

rise

sharply, peaking at 2

million

in 2017,

thus

becoming the dominant group by the end of the

period

. In comparison,

while

both categories of

tourists

showed an

overall

increase,

cruise

ship

visitors experienced a more pronounced and consistent

rise

compared to those staying on the

island

, particularly after 2013.

This

shift indicates a growing preference for

cruise

ship

accommodation over time.In conclusion, the Caribbean

island

witnessed a steady increase in tourist numbers from 2010 to 2017, with a noticeable shift towards

cruise

ship

stays, particularly in the latter years of the

period
