Spain Tourism Statistics 2024

Great list! I’d definitely add conservation tourism or biodiversity tourism to that. Earlier this year I came across a site about a private nature reserve near Santiago, Chile. It promotes low-impact hiking, environmental education, and protection of local species — a perfect example of travel that helps preserve the place you’re visiting.

It’s amazing how places like this combine adventure with real ecological value. Definitely a growing niche worth highlighting more.

The total number of tourists to Spain in 2023 is 85.1 million. This is up from 83.5 million in 2019. Talk about a complete recovery!

50 is the number of official UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the country.

Tourism contributes significantly to Spain’s GDP. Is Spain relying on tourism? Yes. The tourist industry employs a vital 12.7% of the Spanish workforce.

Is tourism the largest industry in Spain, at 108.7 billion euros? No, but it’s one of the largest, as this was the revenue generated by international travellers in 2023.
