Since the creation of the New Tepic-San Blas Highway, the coast region of that municipality represents today one of the most important areas of the tourist activity of the state of Nayarit, which has led to the establishment of large investments for tourism development and for the needs demanded by the inhabitants of the region. However, positive and negative impacts have been identified that put current conditions and social, economic and environmental transformations on alert in the study area. One of the priorities of this research is to create strategies for sustainable tourism development, since this perspective allows to consider benefits for the current generation, as well as in future generations, so that sustainable tourism in its purer sense is an industry committed to making low impact on the environment and local culture, while contributing to generating income and employment for the local population and thus improving the host communities of the coastal region of San Blas, Nayarit. Therefore, strategies have been analyzed that assist in the local and regional development of the populations of the San Blas Coast, so that service providers achieve quality in their products, the inhabitants are partners in decision-making, tourist lead themselves properly and neatly, and public servants ensure the safety and common well-being of those involved.

The Impact

The article examines the role of the tourism industry in creating new jobs in the regions and increasing the welfare of the population. The multiplicative effect of the tourism industry is expressed in the active development of related sectors of the national economy. The spillover effect of tourism spending on the region’s economy can be estimated using an “input-output” model. The paper provides an algorithm for determining the impact of changes in tourism spending on gross output by industry, income and employment in the region. Studies have shown that the development of tourism in St. Petersburg leads to an uneven formation of output, income and employment in various sectors of the region’s economy. The development of the concept of sustainable tourism development should be based on an assessment of the socio-economic state and prospects for the development of the tourism industry. The methodology, which includes an assessment of the resource and throughput potential, is most fully consistent with the principles of the concept of sustainable tourism development. Application of the World Bank methodology for the development of the adjusted net savings index. It allows you to internalize the external costs of economic activity associated with negative impacts on ecosystems and public health, which are an underestimated value in models of sustainable tourism development. The combination of this methodology with traditional multifactor models for assessing the level of tourism development will allow a more targeted approach to the choice of mechanisms and objects of state regulation at the regional levels within the framework of indicative planning.

The tourism sector in Albania has been upheld as a government development priority and a promising window for overall local economic development. Although these ambitions have started to shape the governance of the sector, the inherent challenges on a governance level have meant that most of the tourism development on a local level is being led by local initiatives and the private sector service providers. These initiatives are often fueled by entrepreneurial drive and are sustained by a network of local community actors, giving rise to applied models of sustainable tourism development, as shown by numerous agritourist enterprises emerging across Albania. Through a case study approach, this chapter will focus on the role entrepreneurial eco-systems rooted in local communities can play in the development of sustainable tourism models in Albania.

The Impact

Purpose – The impact of tourism is an ongoing research interest among scholars as it is directly related to the tourism development process. Residents’ perceptions of tourism impacts can indicate development guidelines if planners pay attention to them. Design – We examine residents’ perceptions of tourism impacts and their support for sustainable tourism development in two similar tourism destinations, Portorož and Opatija, based on their similarity, closeness, and connectedness through time to the present. Approach – There is an urgent need for a strategic development change for both destinations, which are coping with typical negative impacts of tourism, including seasonality, noise and, overcrowding. Methodology – Four hundred and forty-six residents surveyed indicated that tourism development is an important issue. Two databases were combined in order to conduct inference data analysis using SPSS 21 statistical software. Depending on the type of variables, t-test and ANOVA were used for the analysis in addition to the descriptive statistics. Findings – Residents point out a clear and strong message for the importance of their inclusion and active involvement in the decision-making processes of sustainable tourism development. Furthermore, our results revealed higher criticism of tourism impacts among those personally involved in tourism (employed or economically dependent on tourism) and among Portorož locals. Originality - We provide theoretical and practical implications of the research, especially suitable for planners of the destination development, who should be cautious about residents’ reaction to tourism at the destination.

This research focuses on the enhancement of natural and cultural landscapes to ensure tourism subsequently as an income generating activity in areas with difficulties. Even if in these areas the potential is high and the willingness of officials and other actors is strong to make tourism an activity that can help local population, success is long in coming. This study helps to highlight the importance of territorial governance for sustainable tourism in Tunisia. Territorial governance has become a central issue in tourism development and a challenge for public policy. Thus, the present study is to show how to evaluate territorial governance taking into account the interactions between the resource territory, local development policies and tourism. The integration of territorial governance principles in sustainable tourism development is one of the most important issues of this activity; in the center of several visions and practices of conservation, negotiating dynamics of the specific objectives of each of the concerned actors in ecotourism development seems to be conflicted between environmental and socio-economic concerns and converging and diverging interests.
