Abstract
Tourism is one of the mainstays of the Spanish economy. It accounts for around 11% of GDP and employment, and contributes substantially to offsetting the trade deficit. With 58.5 million foreign tourists in 2006 (4.5% more than in 2005) and the tourism receipts of close to EUR 40.7 million (5.6% more than in 2005), Spain has consolidated its position as the second-largest destination in the world in terms of tourist arrivals and receipts. Over 1.7 million people work in Spain's tourism sector, the majority (67%) in the hotel sector.
