The Alentejo region recorded “the best tourism year ever” in 2024, with an increase in the number of overnight stays and income, the president of the Regional Tourism Authority said today.
Speaking to Lusa news agency, president of the Alentejo and Ribatejo entity José Manuel Santos said the region exceeded “3.2 million overnight stays” for the first time last year, with “130,000 more overnight stays” than the previous year.
“It was a year in which we grew by more than 4% (in the number of overnight stays), above the national average, in sustained growth,” because “we can’t always grow in double digits, as happened in 2023,” he added.
