It is therefore imperative that these destinations are managed for long-term viability. The natural appeal of a destination is typically one of its main tourism related assets, yet the natural environment is also the feature most directly threatened by potential overexploitation. Sustainable Tourism in Island Destinations builds on existing literature in the subject by providing innovative discussions and practical management structures through the use of the authors' various island project work. An original feature is the focus on islands which are part of larger nations, rather than just on island sovereign states. Through an illustrated case study approach, the book focuses on the successes and challenges islands face in achieving sustainable tourism. The authors put forward innovative mechanisms such as multi-stakeholder partnerships and incentive-driven non-regulatory approaches as ways that the sustainability agenda can move forward in destinations that face specific challenges due to their geography and historic development. The case studies - from Canada, St Kitts, Honduras, China, Indonesia, Spain, Tanzania and Thailand - provide the foundation which suggests that alternative approaches to tourism development are possible if they retain sustainability as a priority. 606 $aIslands 606 $aIslands 606 $aSustainable tourism 606 $aSustainable tourism 606 $aTravel 606 $aSustainable tourism 606 $aIslands 606 $aGeography$2HILCC 606 $aEarth & Environmental Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aTravel & Tourism$2HILCC 615 4$aIslands. 615 4$aIslands. 615 4$aSustainable tourism. 615 4$aSustainable tourism. 615 4$aTravel. 615 0$aSustainable tourism 615 0$aIslands 615 7$aGeography 615 7$aEarth & Environmental Sciences 615 7$aTravel & Tourism 676 $a338.4/79109142 676 $a338.4791 700 $aGraci$b Sonya$01562013 702 $aDodds$b Rachel 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785491303321 996 $aSustainable Tourism in Island Destinations$93829255 997 $aUNINA
