Castries Markets Passport's 144 Visa-Free Destinations Inside Shared Visa Coalition

Saint Lucia sits inside the new shared Caribbean visa coalition. Castries is marketing the passport's strong global mobility — 144 visa-free or visa-on-arrival destinations — as the headline hook for luxury, eco-tourism, and adventure travellers.

Saint Lucia’s place in the new shared Caribbean visa coalition pairs cleanly with its existing passport mobility story: 144 visa-free or visa-on-arrival destinations puts Lucians inside one of the strongest passports in the region. Castries is leaning into that combination as the marketing hook for luxury, eco-tourism, and adventure segments — particularly long-haul and value-added tour packages that span more than one island.
