The excitement to experience the once 'forbidden' land of Cuba is building.
According to the Cuba Journal, Canada has for a long time been Cuba's primary tourism source market but the island is reporting increased interest from European travellers.

In the first six months of 2015, Cuba received 86,639 German visitors, 81,286 form the United Kingdom and 74,969 visitors from France, which equate to 21.7%, 27.5% and 28.5% increases form the same period in 2014 respectively. Their staunch Canadian market also shows increased interest with a 13.2% increase in visitors.
Cruise arrivals and interest in Cuba
have also been on the rise with more companies applying for licenses and permissions to dock in Havana.
Not to be left out, since the travel regulations to Cuba from the US have relaxed there has also been a surge in American travel tourism in Cuba. So much so that it has already sparked discussion about the possibility that Cuba's colonial charm may become tainted if the increased travellers also bring increased interest from commercial entities.

Hopefully, other Caribbean travel markets can capitalize on the huge publicity Cuba is currently receiving to boost their own visitor rates.
