The organization has plans for more than 100 campaigns, spending in excess of $10 million the head of the head of the Sedetur, Marisol Vanegas Perez, told Pasillo Turistico.

Forty-one campaigns are planned for Cancun, Isla Mujeres, and Holbox. Riviera Maya, Puerto Morelos, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum will be the focus of 33 campaigns.

Twenty-five campaigns will feature Cozumel, and 17 will promote Grand Costa Maya, a region that includes Chetumal, Bacalar, and Mahahual.

The campaigns will focus on each region's primary tourist markets. The first priority is national markets followed by the United States, Canada, Europe, South American, and Asia.
