El Salvador's tourism minister has announced that the country is experiencing a surge in tourist numbers. This comes as the country works to change its image from a violent backwater to a haven for Bitcoin enthusiasts and surfers. President Nayib Bukele has also recently announced that the country has gone a full year without a single homicide, making it the safest country in Latin America. Despite criticism from human rights groups and financial institutions, El Salvador's Bitcoin and surf tourism campaign is having a positive impact, with Lonely Planet rating it as one of the top countries to visit in 2023.
