Exploration• Small numbers of visitors attracted by natural beauty

or cultural characteristics• Tourist numbers are limited.• Few tourist facilities exist.

Page 10: Tourist Resort Life Cycle Model

Involvement• Limited involvement by local residents to provide some

facilities for tourists.• There is a recognisable ‘tourist season’.• There begins to be a definite tourist market.

Page 11: Tourist Resort Life Cycle Model

Development• Large numbers of tourists arrive.• Control passes from the locals to external organisations

(TNCs).• Increase in tension between local people and tourists.

Page 12: Tourist Resort Life Cycle Model

Consolidation• Tourism has become a major part of the local economy.• Visitor numbers start to level off (at a high number).• Some older facilities are seen as second-rate.

Page 13: Tourist Resort Life Cycle Model

Stagnation• Peak numbers of tourists have been reached.• The resort is no longer considered fashionable.

Page 14: Tourist Resort Life Cycle Model

Rejuvenation / Decline• Attractiveness continues to decline.• Visitors are lost to other resorts and destinations.• Resort becomes dependent on day visitors and

weekend recreationalists from a limited geographical area.

• Long term decline will continue unless action is taken to rejuvenate the area and modernise.
