The pie charts depict the proportions of different age groups in Spain from 1983 to 2003.
Overall, while there were significant declines in the percentages of tourists between the age of 25 and 54 who went to Spain, the reverse was true for the remaining age groups. Also, the 35-54 group remained the dominant age for tourists despite witnessing decreases in its figure.
Regarding the age cohorts that became less dominant over the years, a half of total visitors to Spain in the 35-54 in 1980 decreased dramatically to 35% in 2003. A similar decline was witnessed in the figure for the 25-35 group, which dropped by 8% from initially about 20% to 12% in 2003. This change marked a shift of this age from being the second-largest cohort to the least one in the final year.
Moving on to the remaining age brackets, the oldest group saw among the most considerable rises, increasing from 16% to 26% in 2003. Similarly, the proportion of people aged 16 to 24 showed a fourfold increase, with its figure used to be the least prevalent age for tourists in 1983, reaching 15% by the end of this period. Finally, the figure for the 0-15 cohort witnessed a minimal growth, which was only 12% two decades later.
