MOSES project - WP6 - Vector 3 - Coastal activities and tourism
It covers indicators related to demographic pressure, tourism and recreation, economic devel- opment and land use and infrastructure development.
This vector captures the impact of human coastal activities on vulnera- bility. In this framework, we are particularly interested in the tourism sector, which is one of the main economic activities in the coast.
Tourism is an important economic sector due to its contribution to GDP and employment. According to the World Travel & Tourism Council, Tourims generates 10.4% of all global economic activity. It contributes 319 million jobs, representing one in ten of all jobs globally. It is a sector that has been growing faster than the global economy for the last eight years. Europe plays an important role in this sector with 51% of international tourits arrivals and 39% of international tourist revenues. Taking into account the countries included in the European Atlantic Arc, it is worth pointing out that France and Spain are first and second, respectively, in the world ranking of international tourist arrivals, with United Kingdom in the seventh position. With respect to international tourism revenues, Spain and France are second and third in the world ranking, respectively, while United Kingdom occupies the fifth position. Coastal tourism contributes significantly in theses coun- tries. It represents 75.6% of total tourism in Spain, 28% in Portugal, 23% in France, 10% in Ireland and 6% in the United Kingdom (Foley et al., 2014, p.204).
