Come apprendere ad essere un turista sostenibile attraverso le aree marine protette : il caso del Parco Sommerso di Gaiola Napoli

2021 - Franco Angeli

P. 151-172

  • Marine Protected Areas perform three key functions: preserving marine biodiversity, con-tributing to the local economy, supporting sustainable tourism enjoyment processes. In Italy, MPAs are created both for the preservation of naturalistic landscapes and as an environmental education device. This essay considers the case of the Submerged Marine Park of Gaiola in Naples by exploring, through the ethnographic approach, the socio-cultural implications that shape a relationship between visitors, environmental protection and tourist practice.
