Abstract

This paper assesses the degree of specialization of tourism destinations along European coasts. It presents a European tourism database and a method based on Data Envelopment Analysis for creating an index of tourism specialization that ranks European basins, countries, and regions at the smallest Eurostat geocoding layer. The set of indicators selected respond to the economic logic of the tourism industry within three vectors: Demand, Supply & employment, and Attractions & amenities. Mediterranean and some Northern European destinations have high levels of tourism specialization while others, mostly in Eastern Europe, rank low in the index. This serves to identify some tourism profiles that provide some insights into the potential for tourism development of the European coasts, which may help in the recovery of the sector and in the management of its transition to a green tourism.

欧洲滨海旅游目的地的专业化程度如何？

本文评估了欧洲沿海旅游目的地的专业化程度。本文介绍了欧洲旅游数据库和一种基于数据包络分析的方法，用于创建旅游专业化指数，在最小的欧洲统计局地理编码层对欧洲流域、国家和地区进行排名。所选的一系列指标在三个矢量内反映了旅游业的经济逻辑：需求、供应和就业以及景点和便利设施。地中海和一些北欧旅游目的地的旅游专业化水平较高，而其他旅游目的地（主要在东欧）的指数排名较低。这有助于确定一些旅游业概况，为欧洲沿海旅游业的发展潜力提供一些启示，从而有助于该行业的复苏和向绿色旅游业过渡的管理。
