Bahamas doubles down on Canadian market as tourism hits new records

The useful part

TORONTO — Fresh off another record-breaking year for tourism, The Bahamas is setting its sights even higher on the Canadian market. "Our travel advisors have always been a staple in everything that we've done and everything that we continue to do," she said. "Tonight, we're having a Captain's Dinner at Aria Ristorante to show our appreciation for our travel advisors and airline and tour operator partners.

How it works

• It's because of them that we have the quality of life that we do in The Bahamas.
• For us, we're grateful." The visit comes as The Bahamas builds on three consecutive years of record-breaking tourism performance, welcoming a record 12.5 million visitors in 2025.
• Canadian demand continues to accelerate, with air arrivals rising more than 11% in 2025 and more than 30% in the first quarter of 2026.
• To celebrate the summer season, The Bahamas is currently offering US$250 in instant savings per room on eligible air-inclusive vacation packages of four or more consecutive nights.
