Tourism development in Salto, Uruguay

Overview

The department of Salto, Uruguay, is focusing on tourism development through seasonal event management and long-term structural reforms.

Initially, local institutions and tourism operators coordinated activities for the Nostalgia long weekend, emphasizing attractions such as Termas del Daymán, the Salto Grande dam, and various cultural and gastronomic offerings.

Following these seasonal efforts, authorities identified the need to address structural weaknesses, including low tourist spending compared to the national average, insufficient professional training, and poor air connectivity. To modernize the sector, the newly formed Tourism Directorate is pursuing digital innovation. This includes the ‘Vive Salto’ initiative, which aims to use artificial intelligence, data, and geolocation to create a unified digital platform and increase the visibility of the region's offerings beyond its traditional thermal spas.
