“We hit the 1 million mark and we are not expecting that much. If this will be the trend, we will exceed 2 million at the end of the year,” Malay Mayor Frolibar Bautista said in an interview on the sidelines of the Central Philippines Tourism Expo held in Iloilo City on June 18.
The number surpassed the 850,047 guests who visited the island during the same period last year, as the island relaxed its COVID-19-related travel restrictions and began recovering from the economic slump caused by the pandemic.Bautista said the increase in Boracay’s tourist arrivals could be attributed to their hosting of meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibits , adding that he expected the number to rise further once visitors from South Korea and China would start arriving next month.
