Even though the passenger vessels have space for freight,the majority of goods arrives on dedicated freighters. Apart from all the goods which are needed for normal life, a large complement of goods consists of all the stuff the duty-free shoppers yearn for.In the last couple of years the tourism board has reworked the marketing campaign towards nature and tranquility- in the 80es the island sported the unflattering nick-name "booze rock". Kind of ridiculous if you think about it- Whisky and Cigars come in by crate and leave by bottle and box. Nontheless, it is an important part of the island's economy
