Tiivistelmä: | Using an established beach rating checklist including 50 physical, biological and human use factors, seven Welsh beaches with environmental designations were assessed. Weightings were subsequently established in response to priorities of three tourism markets: eco-tourism, family, and surfing. Among others it is shown that physical factors scored significantly lower (p<0.01) than both biological and human use factors, being seen as a specific location consequence. Physical factors dominated surfer responses, biological factors reflected conservation priorities and human use factors, particularly safety, were family concerns. Common concerns related to beach litter and outfalls etc. |
