“…Most coastal communities view managing marine resources as a positive influence on their health. Their routine management activities can improve the health of the community, both physical and mental health [20]. The implementation of management activities encourages the community to work actively, and at the same time, it becomes a routine exercise every day to maintain community fitness.…”

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the coastal resource management model in the Central Buleleng Region. Qualitative research design based on the CIPP model (Context, Input, Process, and Product) is used to assess the model's effectiveness that coastal community groups have implemented. Techniques and instruments of data collection through questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Based on the study results, it was found that the model implemented by the coastal community was in a good category. Specifically, the context component is categorized as very good. The input component is considered very good; only the infrastructure indicators are moderate. Meanwhile, the process component is in the moderate category, especially in the contribution and participation of all managers, which are considered moderate. Finally, the product component of the coastal resource management model is in the medium category, especially those related to the economic and environmental conditions of the coastal area. The implications of this study's results require improving the coastal resource management model, especially the process and product components. Available coastal resources must be managed by actively involving all coastal community groups, and their management needs to focus on achieving community welfare and environmental sustainability.

“…Universal accessibility could be a distinctive feature for the tourism industry in Spain (González Velasco, 2008;Fernández Alles and Moral-Moral, 2011;Domínguez Vila et al, 2015). In particular, it could be materialised through the elimination of physical barriers on beaches (Dirección General de Costas, 2001; Yepes Piqueiras et al, 2004), reinforcing the fact that those destination conditions bring several benefits of health and psychological well-being by increasing positive emotions (Peng et al, 2016), whose effects are more significant on people with disabilities (Moore et al, 2018;Cavanaugh et al, 2013). According to Domínguez Vila et al (2015), intrinsic tourist attractions of Spain, such as climate, local, and tourist structure, are the most critical factors for competitiveness in the accessible tourism market of the country.…”

Accessibility in tourist sites in Spain: Does it really matter when choosing a destination?

This work aims to analyse and characterise accessibility in tourism —defined as the conditions for people with access needs— and its relationship with tourism performance. Accessibility is a critical concept —to be defined and measured in a rigorous way— that helps shed light on the particularities of the phenomena, considering consumers and producers of tourism. Spain's solid background in accessible tourism portrays the possibility of elaborating different accessible indicators. We propose and identify an exhaustive set of proxy measures for accessibility under the accessible tourism theoretical framework of the tourism travel chain. We also computed an accessibility index using disaggregated data of 152 Spanish tourist sites (National Statistics Institute of Spain), introducing those measures of accessibility as explanatory variables in a model of tourism performance of sun and cultural destinations. Our results show that accessibility seems not to be a determinant in tourist sites' performance. Sun destinations have better tourism performances than cultural ones, having or not accessible conditions. The findings not only reveal the need to improve and consolidate accessible conditions in cultural destinations, but also disseminate and deepen information channels, especially for people with access needs, before choosing a destination.

“…Despite the threat of natural disasters affecting the health of coastal residents, various studies have shown the positive effects of being exposed to the sea, such as the improvement of physical/mental health and overall well-being in daily lives 7 – 11 . Seascapes have recently received increasing attention as people have come to appreciate sea views 12 . Previous studies have demonstrated the positive impacts of sea views and coastal proximity on residents’ mental health 12 – 14 .…”

In particular, environments that feature a water body are associated with a higher preference for the environment, greater positive effects (with respect to stress, blood pressure, and immune system etc.…”

No previous study has ever explored the association between coastal exposure and the mental health of residents in a post-disaster context. Therefore, we aimed to confirm whether there was an association between sea visibility and coastal proximity and the mental health of coastal residents a devastating tsunami. We targeted 15 coastal municipalities located in the Miyagi Prefecture, and obtained data from a community-based cohort study. The baseline survey was initiated 2 years after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami and the secondary survey was initiated 6 years after the disaster. We applied multilevel mixed-effects models to the longitudinal data. Our outcome measure was the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6) score. We assessed the data collected from 2,327 respondents on both surveys as of April 2018 for this ongoing cohort study. We found that neither sea visibility nor coastal proximity was significantly associated with the recovery of mental health after the disaster. However, we found a distinctive trend of mental health recovery in people who lived alone with a sea view, indicating that visibility of the sea had a negative effect on their mental health immediately after the GEJET, but that the negative effect was subsequently eliminated.
