Tourist flows to Indonesia are growing, and the industry is evolving with the adoption of new technologies. At the same time, risks remain, primarily linked to natural disasters that cause millions of dollars in damage to the sector. In 2024, more than 1,200 such incidents were recorded. Still, experts maintain an optimistic outlook.

Minister of Tourism Widyanti Putri Wardana reported that in the first half of 2025, Indonesia welcomed 7.05 million international tourists, up 9.44% compared to the same period in 2024. Tourism became one of the factors enabling Indonesia’s GDP to grow 5.12% in Q2 2025, higher than 5.05% in the same quarter of 2024. The main inbound markets remained ASEAN countries, Asia, and Europe.
