Following the issuance of travel advisories by the United States, the tourism authorities of the Bahamas and Jamaica are actively reaffirming the safety of their destinations for tourists. The U.S. embassy in the Bahamas highlighted concerns over safety due to a rise in murders, mainly attributed to gang violence, with 18 reported cases in January.

Similarly, the U.S. embassy in Jamaica has raised its travel advisory to Level 3, urging tourists to reconsider their travel plans due to safety concerns. It is just a notch below the most critical warning that advises against travel entirely. Despite these advisories, both Caribbean nations are encouraging tourists not to be deterred. The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism argues that the advisories do not accurately represent the safety across its 16 tourist destinations and numerous islands. The nation, which saw over 9 million visitors last year, is implementing a comprehensive crime reduction strategy that includes prevention, detection, prosecution, punishment, and rehabilitation, drawing on international models and research, as the New York Post reported.

In Jamaica, the tourist board is working to alleviate fears by pointing out that the crime rate for tourists is exceptionally low at 0.01%. The advisory, they explain, applies to specific high-risk areas, leaving the vast majority of the island’s tourism offerings safe and inviting. Jamaica welcomed 4.1 million visitors last year, more than half of whom were from the U.S., underscoring the island’s appeal despite the State Department’s warnings about its high homicide rate, which remains one of the highest in the Western Hemisphere.

“The island consistently ranks among the top destinations for international travel, welcoming 4.1 million visitors in 2023, including 2.1 million from the United States. Visitors can continue to come with confidence to enjoy all that Jamaica has to offer,” said the Jamaican Tourist Board.
