Spain's tourism industry is experiencing unprecedented growth, with the country welcoming 82.9 million international tourists between January and October 2024, marking a 10.8% increase from the previous year.

This surge is on track to set a new record of 95 million tourists by the end of the year.

The economic impact is equally significant, with tourist spending reaching 110.984 billion euros, surpassing the previous year's total of 108 billion euros.

The average daily expenditure per tourist has risen to 188 euros, reflecting a 4.8% increase.

Notably, regions outside the traditional tourist hotspots have seen a 19.5% rise in tourist arrivals, highlighting the success of Spain's tourism decentralization policies.

The UK, France, and Germany remain the top sources of visitors, while emerging markets like the US and Asian countries show promising growth.

Despite the international boom, domestic tourism has slowed, impacted by rising living costs.
