The UK’s southwestern coast is set to shine this summer, as Devon and Cornwall prepare for an unprecedented tourism boom in 2025. Driven by a surge in global demand—particularly from Canada, North America, Japan, and India—both counties are seeing early booking spikes, strong Easter season performance, and favorable weather patterns fueling optimism.
The combination of coastal charm, countryside escapes, and enhanced travel infrastructure has positioned Devon and Cornwall at the forefront of the UK’s post-pandemic tourism revival. Forecasts suggest record volumes of day-trippers and long-haul visitors, with the upcoming Whitsun holiday week expected to kickstart the summer peak.
Local tourism boards and hospitality operators are scaling up operations to meet demand, aiming to capitalize on what’s shaping up to be one of the most successful tourism seasons in recent memory.
