Statia Day is the national holiday of Sint Eustatius, celebrated annually on November 16. It commemorates the historic event of 1776, when Sint Eustatius became the first foreign entity to salute an American-flagged vessel, symbolically recognizing the independence of the United States. This moment, known as the “First Salute,” cemented the island’s place in world history.

island
Sint Eustatius
target group

Two historic burial grounds on Sint Eustatius, Golden Rock and Godet, have gained UNESCO recognition for their significant connection to the island’s slavery heritage. Discovered during airport expansion in 2021, the Golden Rock site sparked controversy, because of how the remains of enslaved Africans were handled. With a ceremony in Paris and a series of local events planned, the island is stepping into the global spotlight. These burial sites are becoming part of UNESCO’s “Routes of Enslaved Peoples” program.
