St Kitts Tourism Authority has inked a joint marketing initiative with the National Golf Course Owners Association in Canada to boost golf tourism to the Caribbean.
St Kitts will promote itself as a golf and leisure destination at more than 1,200 member courses in the Association.
"The Canadian passion for golf, and especially golf travel, is very significant to St Kitts and a key driver behind our partnership with the Association," said Lindsay F.P. Grant, minister of tourism.
The Tourism Authority will sponsor special theme ‘Club Nights’ at select member golf clubs to boost brand awareness and promote the destination’s golf resorts.
Starting in the spring, there are more than 40 events planned during the 2016 golf season.
Jeff Calderwood, CEO of NGCOA Canada said: "Our partnership with the St. Kitts Tourism Authority will create sponsorship opportunities for our members, enhance the consumer golf experience, and help build awareness for St. Kitts and Nevis as a world-class golf vacation destination. This partnership is a true win for our members, St. Kitts and Nevis, and the NGCOA Canada."
