Anguilla to reopen to tourists

Monday, 12 May, 2021 0

The island of Anguilla will reopen to visitors on 25 May after it was forced to close to arriving tourists last month.

The lockdown will end later this month as authorities say it has successful contained the outbreak.

The government has now reduced the quarantine period to seven days for visitors who are fully vaccinated.

"We suffered a temporary setback when we had to close our borders on 22 April. We acted swiftly to contain this cluster of infections. The result is that we are confident we can now safely reopen while protecting the health of our residents," said Parliamentary Secretary Tourism, Quincia Gumbs-Marie.

Non-vaccinated travelers must quarantine for between 10 and 14 days, and all other health protocols remain unchanged.

Visitors must apply in advance for entry permission; have proof of health insurance and have taken a PCR test which is negative, prior to arrival.

A second on-arrival test is required as well as visitor fees of $300 per traveler.
