Valuation economics is a field which promises a wide range of applications for tourism. However, the new born nature of tourism economics has not yet unveiled the vast opportunities for tourist policy information and the pricing information embedded therein. This paper aims to briefly conceptualize these opportunities with examples on the methods and relevant examples of literature and pave the way towards their accommodation in the emerging tourism economics field. Market failure occurrences in tourism drive the need for total economic value estimation for a wide array of tourist goods through the employment of stated preference techniques and revealed preference techniques. Tourism can also benefit from the benefit transfer approach initially conceptualized in environmental economics which have contributed to a great development and expansion of these methods.

“…Travel cost has been the most commonly used nonmarket valuation method in beach valuation studies (Ariza et al, 2012;Prayaga, 2017;Zambrano-Monseratte et al, 2018). Contingent valuation (Lindsay et al, 1992;Bishop et al, 2011;Dribek and Voltaire, 2017;Choi et al, 2021) and choice experiments (Beharry-Borg and Scarpa, 2010;Peng and Olsen, 2017;Ardeshiri et al, 2019) have also been popular non-market valuation methods.…”

The tourism sector plays an important part in Malaysia's economy. It includes beach and recreational tourism. However, most recreational beaches in Malaysia do not impose an entrance fee on visitors. Depending on government funding to maintain recreational beach facilities is not the best option for the future. Therefore, funding directly from visitors is needed to help cater for beach maintenance costs. Based on this, it is crucial to understand how much visitors are willing to pay for the recreational use of beaches, as any money collected could be used to help to improve facilities and services at beach areas. This study investigated visitors' willingness to pay for recreational beach facilities and has provided policy recommendations for better management of tourist facilities and services in the future. Teluk Kemang beach in Port Dickson was chosen as the case study location. This study applied the Choice Experiments (CE) method, and the model used was the Conditional Logit (CL) model. This research used four attributes: amenities, recreational facilities, cleanliness, and entrance fee. The CL results revealed that visitors were willing to pay for good amenities and cleanliness, with values of RM2.07 and RM2.43, respectively. Therefore, it was discovered that it was practical to charge an entrance fee to cover improved maintenance of beach facilities.

“…Existing studies have regarded WTP as an economic tool and have used it to assess the non‐use value of beaches (Risén et al, 2017; Rodella et al, 2019). While a few studies have discussed factors that influence WTP, no attention was paid to the specific characteristics of beach tourism (Alves et al, 2014; Dribek & Voltaire, 2017). In an attempt to solve this problem, this study introduced the stimuli‐organism‐response (SOR) model to investigate whether visitors' perceptions of the quality of a beach impact their WTP.…”

Beaches are regarded as a core resource in coastal tourism. However, they are being eroded by environmental pollution, which has negative impacts on visitors' tourism experiences. This study proposed a framework to elaborate the effects of visitors' environmental perceptions on satisfaction and willingness to pay for environmental protection. The findings revealed that visitors' perceptions of a beach's quality had significant positive effects on their satisfaction. Furthermore, satisfaction significantly increased visitors' willingness to pay for environmental protection. In addition, visitors' perceptions of the beach environment had a direct and positive impact on their willingness to pay for environmental protection.
