Abstract:There has been little study of the effects of major developments on the tourism industry of the region. This article examines the impacts of North Sea oil-related developments on a small but growing industry in the Shetland Islands during the period from 1970 to the present. It notes that such development proved both beneficial to the tourism industry through improved infrastructure and guaranteed access to an affluent market, but negative to the pleasure element of the industry, which was displaced and ignored for over decade.
