 A new tourism attraction has opened on the island's west coast, more from Anise Antoine. The parliamentary representative for Anceleri Canaries, Honourable Dominique Fede, opened the latest addition to St Lucia's tourism product in Anceleri. The newly established Glittering Sands Beach Park, located at Troulager, is owned and operated by St Lucia's and employs some 20-plus persons from the constituency of Anceleri Canaries. The beach park welcomed the first group of over 50 cruise ship guests for a fantastic day in paradise. Honourable Dominique Fede expressed gratitude to the investors for having confidence in the project. I am moved with emotion and it's all part of what my government believes in, in sustainable development, creating jobs for people and ensuring that young people, old people, have opportunities everywhere they go and really to make use of this beautiful spot is just an incredible, incredible feat and an incredible opportunity for all of us, for the people that are working here, for the small businesses that are created. There's a local Anceleri resident who has established a spa facility, there's a local resident from Marigold who has established a kayaking business, there's the Valais restaurant who have established the food and beverage outlets so the economic impact is enormous. The Glittering Sands Beach Park provides water spots, food and beverages, a souvenir shop, storage facilities, washrooms and an outdoor spa. If you look at how the construction has been done, everything is environmentally friendly, using a lot of local woods from the area. You look at the cladding is done by the Rosa Wood for example, which is very familiar in the Rosa River, not too far from here, but what is being exposed is you've got a number of tours, the waterfall tours, they snorkeling the kayaking a little later on, I'm sure that they'll get into diving because some of the most beautiful reefs are in these spots and so it is an enormous feat by all of us to be able to pull this off. The Glittering Sands Beach Park was officially opened on Thursday, October 15th, 2019. From the Government Information Service, I am Anisia Antoine reporting.
