Data from the EU Tourism Dashboard show that in winter, southern coastal regions are the EU’s travel hotspots. The dashboard shows the latest data (available until the end 2023) and indicators on EU’s tourism ecosystem at national, regional and sub-regional levels. Launched in 2022, the EU Tourism Dashboard was developed by the JRC and the Commission’s Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, following a request by EU Member States to design a tool for monitoring the twin transition and resilience of the tourism ecosystem. The dashboard is developed in cooperation with Eurostat and in coordination with the EU Member States.
