What is the impact of tourism?
Benefits and problems of tourism Tourism can bring both benefits and problems to an area.
Positive effects of tourism include:
- Creates employment opportunities for local people
- Promotes cultural awareness and can help preserve local culture and traditions e.g. Masai Mara in Kenya
- Income from tourists can be used to develop local infrastructure and services e.g. new roads and airports. In LEDCs money can be spent on developing access to education, clean water and sanitation
- Foreign currency can help local people
- Natural features that attract tourists in the first place can be protected using income from tourism
The negative effects of tourism include:
- Tourism can have a negative environmental impact . This is at a range of scales. The increase in air travel has contributed towards increased carbon dioxide emissions. On a local level natural features that attract tourists are themselves under threat due to human actions
- often local people are employed in low skill, poorly paid work in unsatisfactory working conditions
- travel agents, airline companies and hoteliers benefit more than local companies when holidays are booked to destinations in LEDCs companies based in MEDCs set up luxury hotels in LEDCs. The profits usually return to MEDCs. They also create more competition for locally run guest houses
- destroys local culture and traditions as areas becomes more westernised

Our Shrinking World & Tourism Growth
The Impacts Of Tourism - Case Study: Benidorm
Tourism in Wales
Tourism is a very important part of the Welsh Economy. This is because:
Tourists spend over £8 million a day in Wales - this adds up to around £3 billion a year!
About 100,000 people in Wales are employed in the tourism industry. This accounts for nearly ten per cent of the workforce.
Over one million tourists come to Wales every year. The most popular origins of overseas visitors are from the Republic of Ireland, USA and Germany.
What tourists do in Wales:
The most popular activities for tourists visiting Wales include: walking, swimming and visiting historical attractions such as castles, museums and galleries.
The most popular attraction in Wales is the Museum of Welsh Life which attracts over 600,000 visitors per year.
There are over 80,000 bed spaces available in Wales.
So tourism is really important, but what is it about Wales that makes it such a tourist attraction?
To answer this question we need to know about the different types of tourist attractions. We can classify tourism as being due to either physical or human reasons.
Physical reasons for tourism
Physical geography means things to do with the natural world. Wales has some beautiful beaches such as this one in Llangrannog in West Wales (Llangrannog is also a human tourist attraction).
Other physical attractions include Mount Snowdon in North Wales. People travel thousands of miles just to see these views.
The three most outstanding places of beauty in Wales have been made National Parks. Other physical attractions include the clean rivers, countryside and even cave systems which extend for miles in underground caverns beneath much of South West Wales.
Did you know?
National Parks are areas of outstanding natural beauty that have been given legal protection by an act of parliament. In Wales there are three National Parks:
The Snowdonia National Park in North Wales
The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park in West Wales
The Brecon Beacons National Park in South Wales
Human reasons for tourism
Human geography means things to do with people in Wales. This can include cultural, historical or even sporting events. Cultural includes things to do with language and art. Llangrannog attracts tourists not just because of its beach but because it has a residential centre owned by Urdd Gobaith Cymru (Wales's League of Youth). This is where people go to learn and improve their Welsh language skills.
Other major cultural attractions include Eisteddfods such as the Llangollen International Music Eisteddfod which this year will be attracting thousands of tourists to North Wales between 5th – 11th July.
A major category is historical and includes sites like the magnificent castles of North Wales such as this one here in Caernarvon. Other historical attractions include industrial sites such as the National Slate Museum in Llanberis in North Wales or the Big Pit mining museum in Blaenavon in South Wales.
Sporting activities also attract large numbers of visitors to Wales either as spectators or as participants. Big spectator events include the rugby internationals, the Wales Rally G.B. and in October 2010 the Ryder Cup will be be help in Wales.
The benefits of tourism
The most obvious benefit of tourism to an area is that tourists spend money and this provides jobs. Nearly ten per cent of jobs in Wales depend directly on tourism and many more depend on the money that these jobs earn. However, there are other benefits like improved facilities such as swimming pools or cinemas to accommodate tourists.
The disadvantages of tourism
It is not all good news! Tourists bring problems: walkers leave open farm gates or drop litter causing farmers many problems (tourists don't always follow the countryside code).
Respect - Protect - Enjoy
Be Safe - plan ahead and follow any signs.
Leave gates and property as you find them.
Protect plants and animals, and take your litter home.
Keep dogs under close control.
Consider other people.
Popular tourist spots are sometimes called honeypot sites – a sweet honeypot left in the garden on a warm summer's day soon attracts a lot of wasps and starts to become something nasty! When too many tourists visit a place they spoil it. This includes pollution from cars, crowds of people and far too often traffic jams on motorways during the tourism season.
These disadvantages sometimes leads to Conflict. Conflict doesn't mean fighting but road rage has led to more than one bout of fisticuffs! It means that different people want different things. For example, a tourist wants to visit an area to go walking; this is great for a hotel owner and local pub landlord. But this is bad news for farmer who has a sheep killed on a road because the walker left a field gate open!
Choose a tourist attraction that you have visited in Wales:
What are the physical and human features that attract tourists?
What are the benefits of tourism to that location?
What are the disadvantages of tourism to that location?
What kinds of conflicts might this create?

Global tourism Case study: Lake District
Tourism develops due to natural and man-made factors. It is a global issue with positive and negative effects. Responsible management can minimise the impact of tourism in the 21st century.
Part of Geography Global issues
Case study: Lake District
Sustainability in the lake district.
Measures that have been adopted to help maintain the Lake District for future generations close future generations People who will be alive in many years to come. .
The National Trust close National Trust A charity responsible for ensuring the protection and preservation of historic places and spaces for public enjoyment. and other conservation groups have undertaken footpath maintenance. Some paths have been rebuilt or access restricted to reduce the effects on paths and vegetation close vegetation Trees and plants. .
Public transport has been improved and subsidised, for example the Langdale Rambler bus service. Visitors are encouraged to use the buses instead of bringing their cars into the national park.
Restricted parking zones have been set up in some villages, for example in Elterwater. The car park on the edge of the village has been expanded and parking on grass verges and near houses has been restricted.
Raising awareness of conservation issues for visitors with posters and leaflets at tourist information and visitor centres.
A 10 mph speed limit was introduced on Windermere in March 2005. The lake had become congested with powerboats and water-skiers, and noise from the speedboats was spoiling the lake for other users such as swimmers and canoeists.
There was also concern that the wake from powerboats had caused shore erosion and that boats had contributed to pollution and the disappearance of reed beds in the lake.
Conservationists welcomed the new speed limit, but speedboat owners, water-skiers and boat companies around the lake objected to the change. Businesses have been affected and boat users have had to find alternative lakes.

The Growth of Tourism
Growth of tourism.
Tourism has grown since the 1500s. Innovations in transport has had huge impacts on tourism.
Beginnings of tourism
- Tourism started with public baths that people relaxed in. Middle and upper class people would travel to these baths from the 1700s.
- The Colosseum (Rome) and the Acropolis (Athens) were frequently visited, as well as the capital cities of Vienna and Paris (Austria and France), which were seen as the home of the arts and culture.
- These holidays would usually have to last months or years because of the limited means of transport.
- Journeys would be taken by horse and carriage along dirt tracks.
Package deals
- The first one in the UK was for a religious seminar on avoiding alcohol in 1841, encouraging travel by train between Leicester and Loughborough.
- In the UK, tourism grew through railways.
- This opened up opportunities to go to holiday parks like Butlins and seaside resorts like Blackpool.
Transport 2
- Post-1945, the invention of the jet engine made air travel much more attractive for larger numbers of people.
- Many UK locations could not compete with the sunshine in Spain and France, especially because it had become so quick to go abroad.
- Budget airlines like Easyjet were created in the 1990s, which made going abroad cheaper by being more basic a service.
- This made travel more affordable so it became more normal to go abroad.
- TV and the internet make other parts of the world visible and encourages people to visit more isolated locations to do some exploring, e.g. Antarctica or St Helena island.
Which attractions are popular?
- Some attractions are popular because they are interesting physical landscapes, like the the Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls and Victoria Falls.
- e.g. cityscapes like Manhattan (Empire State building, Chrysler building, Grand Central station).
- London is also an example of a cityscape (Houses of Parliament, the Shard, the London Eye, the Tower of London).
- These attract millions of visitors a year.
