The graph depicts the figures of visitors top an island situated on the Caribbean in a
span of 8 years, starting from 2010.
Overall, at the starting point of the period, visitors staying on island outnumbered the ones staying on cruise ships, though the same can not be said at the end of 2017 where the number of tourists who opted to stay on cruise ship were higher than that of visitors who prefered to remain on island. Taking a closer look at the graph, in 2010, 0.3 million visitors stayed on cruise ship, then the number rose slightly to 0.5 million in the next year, only to slip back to 0.3 million in 2012. But from 2012 onwards, the figures grew steadily throughout the next 5 years, peaking at 2 millions at the end of the period. Meanwhile, the amount of tourist who chose to stay on island during their trips was higher than that of those staying on cruise ships about 0.4 million people in 2010, then went up moderatly to 1.5 million people in 2013, after which reached a plateau for two years and finished off the period in 2017 at 2 million people. On the other hand, the total number of visitors increased constantly from 2010 to 2015, where the figures leveled off for a year at roughly 2.7 million before soaring to a whooping number of 3.5 million visitors by the end of 2017.
