International tourism; number of arrivals in Honduras 

The International tourism; number of arrivals in Honduras was reported at 899000.00 in 2008, according to the World Bank. International inbound tourists (overnight visitors) are the number of tourists who travel to a country other than that in which they have their usual residence, but outside their usual environment, for a period not exceeding 12 months and whose main purpose in visiting is other than an activity remunerated from within the country visited. When data on number of tourists are not available, the number of visitors, which includes tourists, same-day visitors, cruise passengers, and crew members, is shown instead. Sources and collection methods for arrivals differ across countries. In some cases data are from border statistics (police, immigration, and the like) and supplemented by border surveys. In other cases data are from tourism accommodation establishments. For some countries number of arrivals is limited to arrivals by air and for others to arrivals staying in hotels. Some countries include arrivals of nationals residing abroad while others do not. Caution should thus be used in comparing arrivals across countries. The data on inbound tourists refer to the number of arrivals, not to the number of people traveling. Thus a person who makes several trips to a country during a given period is counted each time as a new arrival.This page includes a historical data chart, news and forecats for International tourism; number of arrivals in Honduras.

International promotion through the Honduras brand

The Honduras Tourism Institute (HTI) is the entity in charge of promoting tourist development in Honduras. The authorities are working on promoting Honduras in foreign countries and attracting tourists from different potential markets such as Europe, which has shown an increase of 73% in arrivals since 2004. The HTI is promoting the country through the Honduras brand with the slogan ‘Honduras: everything is here’. Honduras is expected to become more deeply involved in overseas promotional activity and to join forces with other Central American countries to promote the region as a whole, highlighting the main tourist attractions in the country, such as the Tela, Utila and las Islas de la Bahía (the Bay Islands).

Foreign tourists are attracted to Honduras by the Mayan ruins in Cobбn and coral reef skindiving off the Islas de la Bahнa (Bay Islands). Poor infrastructure, however, has discouraged the development of substantial international tourism. Despite these problems, the number of visitors arriving in Honduras rose from fewer than 200,000 in 1987 to almost 250,000 in 1989. Small ecotourism projects in particular are considered to have significant potential.
