She says more than 21 million of those travelers visited other state destinations (other than Cancun), marking an 8 percent increase in travelers and a 12 percent increase in spending over 2022. “Quintana Roo is undoubtedly at its best moment, thanks to everyone who make these figures possible. Without a doubt, the transformation is advancing with shared prosperity, with social justice and with development,” she said in a statement.
According to the Quintana Roo Tourism Secretariat, the ports of Quintana Roo received more than 6.1 million cruise passengers in 2023, strengthening the economy and tourism. “The tourism diversity of our destinations makes us unique, not only in Mexico, but in the world,” said Bernardo Cueto, the Secretary of Tourism.
“From paradisiacal beaches to cultural riches, each place offers an unforgettable experience, Quintana Roo is at its best,” he said.
With more than 130,000 hotel rooms, Quintana Roo is established as a first-class destination for national and international visitors. Connectivity is a fundamental pillar for the state, he said, with direct flights to 114 cities around the world, positioning Quintana Roo as the main gateway for foreign tourists in Mexico.
