This is the most visits registered in The Pitiusas by 582,181 tourist arrivals during the month of July. The latest tourists’ statistics in July not only uphold the locals’ confession of surging of summer tourists but also see the most remarkable high season in terms of the intensity of visitors’ volume.
The number of tourists reached the mark of 500,000 in the first of July on Balearic Islands, with the region’s tourism performance being almost 9% higher than in 2015. The number has grown by x3, 510,380, if we talk about the first six months of the year, from January through July. This demonstrates a very impressive quantity of tourists with 10.98 percent increase.
From the total of 582 181 foreign visitors, simply the biggest part of them were international visitors, while the domestic tourist numbered only 108 500. Unless Brexit deeply affects the British market and makes it decrease in significance, it will remain an unchallenged leader, with approximately 160,000 tourists entering the country, the Italians who are in the second place with 78,000 tourists that are dutifully followed by the Germans with 55,000 and the French in the fourth place with 30,00
The number of tourists on the diminishing islands hasn’t changed from the beginning to the end of the year. It has been 1.2 million visitors who have come to the islands for the holidays, weekends or short celebrations.
However, it’s worth knowing that in July of current year, the number of tourists in Majorca amounted to 1,837,125 being 9.5% greater than that of 2015 that translated into an increase of 151,000 capacities per month. Nevertheless, the result obtained was of the order of magnitude of those obtained in Menorca in this year, where an increase of 23.5% was registered already in July for the whole year.
All together, the islands have seen the highest number of tourists in one month to beat the previous record and this has been realized as 2, 755,321 being the number of the tourists with only 390,000 of them being local. The high season for Balearic Islands’ tourist numbers is likely to peak in August with the same percentages as the initial guesses and beat the forecasted positive predictions for the tourist arrivals in the Balearic Islands in 2022.
