The local water sports sector is reporting significant benefits from the influx of visitors to the island this Crop Over season.
Several water sports operators say they have been very busy in recent weeks, meeting the demands of visitors seeking to utilise their services and facilities.
Instructor at Barbados Blue, Nicole Hill, says a lot of tourists were particularly interested in trying several water sports for the first time.
Meanwhile, jet ski operator Lordon Charles says he also felt the positive spin-off of thousands of visitors descending on the island this Crop Over.
