宁波旅游业以“看上海世博，游阿拉宁波”为主题，精心策划线路，全新包装产品，加大世博旅游宣传推广，取得了良好的成效。在启动仪式上，宁波市旅游协会发出了“迎世博、树形象，推进旅游品质新提升”的倡议书，倡议全市旅游行业从我做起，“美丽迎世博”、“产品迎世博”、“低碳迎世博”、“品质迎世博”。宁波市共有渔港、渔村、渔民、渔节（宁波·象山）等9条主题线路入选2010年上海世博会世博主题体验之旅示范点，涉及相关景点26个。 当天，上海世博会吉祥物海宝雕塑也正式落户滕头村。 
据介绍，为进一步发挥“世博效应”，宁波还将赴上海举办对接世博旅游新闻发布会，开展“看世博，回故乡”海外“宁波帮”省亲游、“杨澜带您游象山”、“万名游客看世博”先行团等世博旅游活动。
