Caymanians to vote on cruise berthing

Share

The Association for Cruise Tourism (ACT) in the Cayman Islands is celebrating a hard-fought victory following last week’s parliamentary vote to move forward with a public referendum on cruise berthing infrastructure in the upcoming election cycle.

For months, ACT has been at the forefront of efforts to bring this issue directly to the Caymanian people, and Executive Program Manager Ellio Solomon made it clear that the association’s relentless advocacy to give the Caymanian people a voice was instrumental in securing this milestone.

“This is exactly the outcome ACT has worked tirelessly to achieve,” Solomon said. “It is a major step toward aligning Cayman’s cruise berthing infrastructure with modern standards, and we are proud that our efforts have ensured the voices of Caymanians will be heard on this critical issue.”

The Cayman Islands general elections, in which the referendum will be decided, are set for April 30, 2025.
