Costa Rica's Tourism Sector Growth
Costa Rica's tourism sector continues to flourish, with impressive increases in tourist arrivals, particularly from key markets like the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The rise in arrivals at both Juan Santamaría International Airport and Daniel Oduber International Airport reflects the country's growing appeal as a tourist destination.
The dominance of the United States (23% increase) as the primary source of visitors underscores the strong ties between the two countries and the allure of Costa Rica's natural beauty and diverse attractions. It's also promising to see increases in visitors from Canada (10% increase) and Mexico (33% increase), indicating a broadening of Costa Rica's appeal across North America. The Liberia International Airport had a 28% increase over arrivals in 2023.
The significant number of European tourists, with notable contributions from Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, demonstrates Costa Rica's global appeal and the success of international advertising campaigns in key European markets.
The rise in average tourist spending suggests that visitors are not only increasing in number but also contributing more to the local economy, which is great news for businesses and communities reliant on tourism revenue. The Province of Guanacaste is one of the target areas for many visitors to coastal towns as Playas Del Coco, Playa Hermosa, Playa Panama, Tamarindo and Flamingo accessed through the Liberia International Airport.
Costa Rica's tourism sector is a vital driver of the country's economy, and the record-breaking numbers in 2023 (16.8% increase) reflect its importance. With ongoing international advertising campaigns and continued efforts to promote sustainable tourism, Costa Rica is well-positioned to maintain its status as a premier destination for travelers seeking unforgettable experiences amidst stunning natural landscapes.
Real Estate sales also continue to be very strong as tourists fall in love with Guanacaste's coastal towns and beaches.
