MS Westerdam cruise ship of the Holland America Line carrying 2,700 guests and crew arrives in Boracay Island on Tuesday (Nov. 7, 2023). Malay tourism officer Felix Gregorio Delos Santos said the arrival of cruise ships helps in the marketing of the island, with the hope they would return after their brief stay in Boracay.<em>\u00a0(Photo from Malay-Boracay Tourism Office FB page)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe arrival is considered an excursion since they only stay for a few hours. But this would add to our marketing, hoping they would come back after their experience in Boracay,\u201d Malay tourism officer Felix Gregorio Delos Santos said in a phone interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among their itineraries, he said, is going to shops where they can buy local products and island hopping, adding to the town\u2019s economic activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delos Santos said tourist arrivals in Boracay Island have surpassed the 1.8-million target for 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data from the municipal tourism office showed that from January to October, 1,791,594 tourists visited the island. With the addition of 26,030 tourists from Nov. 1-5, the arrivals reached 1,817,624.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur projected tourist arrival for this year is 1.8 million. We hope and pray that we sustain our 100,000 tourist arrivals in a month. I am positive that we can get back the two million tourist arrivals,\u201d Delos Santos added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022, Boracay catered to 1,759,592 tourists, which was surpassed this year as early as October.<em><strong>&nbsp;(PNA)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ILOILO CITY&nbsp;&ndash; Boracay Island welcomes its second visiting cruise ship for this month and the fourth for this year, carrying<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1598,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,51,34],"tags":[52],"class_list":["post-1597","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-tourism","category-travel","tag-boracay-island"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
