What the figures show

Between 2019 and 2025, visitor numbers in Phang Nga were highest in 2019 (4,905,309) and lowest in 2021 (676,324). Visitors in 2025 were 11.2% lower than in 2019, the last year before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Foreign visitors made up 61.2% of visitors to Phang Nga in 2025, compared with 22.1% across all provinces. Tourism revenue averaged THB 13,542 per visitor, against THB 8,102 nationally (calculated by ThailandStats from the published totals).

The ministry counts a visitor in every province they visit, including day visitors and people visiting friends or relatives. These figures are therefore visits to Phang Nga, not a count of different people, and foreign visitors here are not the same measure as international arrivals to Thailand.

Methodology

Figures are the Ministry of Tourism and Sports' January–December province table. The publisher defines visitors (ผู้เยี่ยมเยือน) as people travelling for tourism and other purposes such as visiting friends or relatives, whether or not they stay overnight, and whether they stay in accommodation, with friends or relatives, or elsewhere. Visitors are counted in each province they visit, so the national total is a count of province visits, not of people, and foreign visitors are not comparable with international arrivals. Revenue is the publisher's estimate of visitor spending in million baht. Occupancy is the accommodation occupancy rate in per cent. Each year is taken from the most recent release that reports it after review by the publisher's statistics committee (marked R), where one exists; the release is recorded for every value. The national figures are the publisher's own totals, not sums calculated by ThailandStats.

2020 and 2021 are marked P (preliminary). For those years the publisher counts foreign visitors as foreigners who entered Thailand before the border closure and stayed in the provinces, excluding foreigners working in Thailand.

The publisher's regional subtotals are not ingested: its regional grouping changed during the period and differs from the six-region system used on this site.

Two province names are misspelt in some releases (ประจวบศิรีขันธ์, ศรีษะเกษ) and are matched to Prachuap Khiri Khan and Sisaket.

Licence: the publisher does not state reuse terms (unconfirmed). Figures are republished as attributed statistical facts.
