Map Facts
The map provides an overview of the number of overnight stays in all types of accommodation in 2014 and the nationality of the tourists. The highest numbers are found in the region of Syddanmark in Denmark with more than 14 million in 2014, followed by the capital regions of Sweden and Denmark (both more than 11 million). In national comparison, the capital regions have the highest numbers of overnight stays in the Nordic region. The share of international tourists is generally higher in Iceland compared to the rest of the Nordic region. The Faroe Islands had the highest share of 72% of overnight stays by nationals from other Nordic countries in 2014. More than half of the tourists with overnight stays in Greenland were Danish nationals. For most regions in Norway, Sweden and Finland, the share of overnight stays of nationals from their own country comprised more than two thirds of the totals in 2014. In Denmark the three regions with the highest visitor numbers have more than 50% international visitors.
