Cyprus saw a major boost in its tourism earnings this spring, with revenue from the sector climbing 39.9% in April 2025 compared to the same month last year, according to the latest figures from the Statistical Service of Cyprus.
Tourism-related income for April reached €304.2 million, a sharp rise from €217.4 million in April 2024. This upward trend extended across the first four months of the year, with total revenue from January to April 2025 hitting €582.5 million—a 32.2% increase year-on-year.
Visitor spending also increased notably. The average tourist shelled out €726.42 in April 2025, up from €651.69 during the same month last year, marking an 11.5% rise.
The United Kingdom remained Cyprus’s top source market, contributing 36.3% of total tourists. British visitors spent an average of €89.33 per day. Israeli tourists—Cyprus’s second-largest market in April at 15.2%—had a daily spending average of €140.08. Meanwhile, German visitors (7.1% share) spent around €103.23 per day.
These figures point to not only a healthy rebound in travel activity but also a growing appetite among tourists to spend more while on the island. This surge in tourism revenue strengthens Cyprus’s broader economy and provides positive spillovers for related industries, including hospitality, transport, and real estate.
