The South Pacific Tourism Organisation (SPTO) has released the 2013 tourism Fact and Figures for the region.

The pocket size edition contains tables and figures on tourist arrivals by country, year, market share and percentage growth as well as information about accommodation, National Tourism budgets and country profiles.

“The SPTO is pleased to release the second edition of the Facts and Figures booklet for 2013. We believe this pocket sized booklet is apt for quick information on tourism statistics for the South Pacific and will be very useful for students and research”, SPTO Chief Executive Ilisoni Vuidreketi says.
