Sustainable Tourism is one that makes optimal use of natural resources, respects the socio-cultural authenticity of the host communities and ensures viable economic development in the long term.
To develop and carry out sustainable tourism, it is necessary to address three areas, which constitute the base structure from which the action plans and guidelines to follow emerge; economic, sociocultural and environmental.
Those responsible for ensuring the sustainable development of tourism are all tourism actors, that is: authorities, businessmen, residents, visitors and in general all the people involved in the development and operation of tourism.
