“…In general, Class 2 areas mainly correspond with natural sites with high landscape values and low intrusion of human presence (very acceptable anthropogenic activities/structures, Ergin et al, 2010;Ergin et al, 2011;Williams et al, 2007;Williams, 2011;Rangel et al, 2013). The very good scores observed at Varadero beaches (Table 1) are linked to an important change in the approach to coastal erosion and environmental problems, such as ones related to human usage of backbeach and dunes.…”

“…As seen from the results of scenery classifications given in many different countries (Ergin et al, 2010;Ergin, Karaesmen, & Uçar, 2011;Rangel, Correa, Anfuso, Ergin, & Williams, 2013;Williams, 2011;Williams, Sellars, & Phillips, 2007), sites with high scenic quality (Class 1) are generally located in natural protected areas, while very low scenic quality sites (Class 5) are observed in high urbanized areas with human parameters exhibiting low attribute values (for example, areas with an environmentally insensitive skyline). Such general findings were broadly confirmed in this study even if important differences were observed at some places.…”

En la actualidad, el turismo representa una de las actividades económicas de mayor importancia para México, debido a los ingresos anuales que este produce. Sin embargo, la falta de tecnología aplicada en este campo evita el crecimiento del turismo debido a la falta de información de las zonas costeras. En este trabajo, se desarrolla un modelo computacional basado en un Proceso de Jerarquía Analítica por sus siglas en inglés (AHP), con la finalidad de obtener un índice de evaluación de costas. Para este modelo se utilizan parámetros como la temperatura, oleaje, radiación solar, humedad y velocidad del viento, los cuales fueron medidos y analizados. Este índice ayuda a proporcionar información relevante para los turistas que se disponen a viajar a México.

“…(Sardà, O'Higgins, Cormier, Diedrich, & Tintore, 2014) The important factors for beach management are cleanliness, safety, protection, management, and, facilities and services (Chen & Bau, 2016). Certification of beaches, for example, by eco-label or blue flag, is very important in role of protection, management, planning (Ergin, O¨z¨olcer, & Sahin, 2010) and has a positive effect (Capacci, Scorcu, & Vici, 2015). It is also the most useful for creating an image of environmental destination, increasing competitiveness, improving beach service quality and raising environment awareness (Mihalicˇ, 2000;Honey, 2002).…”

Both host whose stakeholders in public and privates business in the beach area and communities and guests or tourists were asked and discussed. The results from the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) indicated that six components were the significant factors for sustainable beach management, yielding Chi-square =10.870 Chi-square/df = 1.812, df = 6, p = 0.092, GFI = 0.996, CFI = 0.993, RMR = 0.008, RMSEA = 0.032. The sustainable beach tourism included six components of management on marketing and promotion management, tourist attraction management, participation management, environmental, cultural and education management, process, plan and policy management and personnel management respectively.
