Tourism model in low-density coastal areas
Short Abstract
Tourism is undeniably a very important sector for the world economy. Low-density and coastal areas are poles of development, and attention must be paid to their sustainable growth. Some of these coastal areas are low density/rural. This study aims to analyze the evolution of the main existing models that portray low-density tourism in coastal areas. The methodology used was the literature review analysis on the themes of coastal tourism and low density territories, as well as the analysis of the main models developed for these two areas. The results indicate the need to update the previously proposed models, giving rise to the ‘Low-density tourism model in coastal areas’. It is thus necessary for low-density tourism in coastal areas, the creation of extra income; development of new opportunities; increased demand for endogenous products; creation of new local economies; low agglomeration; and health & wellness.
