Foreign tourists coming to the island resort of Boracay outnumbered local tourists early this year.

For the month of March alone the Provincial Tourism Operations Office (PTOO) in Aklan recorded a total of 62,970 tourists having visited Boracay Island.

Of the total number of visitors, 39,615 were foreign tourists while 23,355 were domestic tourists.

However, tourist arrival in March this year is lower compared to the same period in 2010 which earned the tourism industry revenues of some P1,157,602,698.

The PTOO believes the decrease in the number of visitors was due to the onset of rainfall spawned by the inclement weather prevailing elsewhere in the region during the first quarter of this year. (more…)
