Great news for Belize: according to BTB numbers, overnight tourists are up almost 11%, bringing in quality tourism dollars, and cruise tourists are going down, meaning less deterioration to the reef. Yes, 2012 was exceptional for tourism, especially overnight tourism, which had an overall 10.7% increase from last year. In 2012, there were 26,872 more visitors than in 2011: 277,135 visitors for the entire year. Cayo has obviously been busier in regards to tourism.
"The Belize Tourism Board wishes to extend hearty congratulations to all Belizeans, our partners and stakeholders. It is through continuous hard work, collaboration and dedication that we are able to achieve such impressive results. We look forward to an even greater year in 2013!"
