Tourism is one of the sectors with the greatest economic potential in Panama this year. The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) estimates that this sector will grow at a rate of 8.4% this year in Panama, placing the country among the most dynamic regions in Central America and the Caribbean.
These estimates align with the performance of tourism activity in the first months of the year. Between January and April of this year, the country received more than 1.28 million international visitors, representing a 16.4% increase compared to the same period in 2015, when 1.10 million people entered the country.
