Abstract

Purpose – This paper uses the prices of holiday accommodations on large Mediterranean islands specialising in sun and beach tourism to determine their initial state in 2015, their competitiveness and their further evolution until 2019. Methodology/Design/Approach – Following the process of each potential tourist, a total of 21,628 prices were collected from the Internet. Then, the collected data were used in the construction of charts and price indices and the application of a method of cluster analysis (HAC). Findings – Between 2015 and 2019, tourism prices in the Mediterranean region increased sharply. Moreover, the geographic segmentation already observed in 2015 between Western and Eastern Mediterranean destinations intensified. In addition, the paper shows that there is robust demand for sun and beach tourism in island destinations. Originality of the research – Major island markets specialising in sun and beach tourism were used to exclude any interference from professional travellers, people visiting friends or relatives, or tourists willing to bear the cost of travel to less visited destinations.

以旅游住宿价格为指标的地中海大岛阳光海滩市场分析

目的-本文使用大型地中海岛屿上的假日住宿价格，专门从事阳光和海滩旅游，以确定他们在2015年的初始状态，他们的竞争力和进一步的演变，直到2019年。方法/设计/方法-遵循每个潜在游客的过程，从互联网上收集了总共21,628个价格。然后，将收集到的数据用于图表和价格指数的构建，并应用聚类分析方法(HAC)。2015年至2019年期间，地中海地区的旅游价格大幅上涨。此外，2015年已经观察到的地中海西部和东部目的地之间的地理分割加剧。此外，本文还显示，岛屿目的地对阳光和海滩旅游的需求强劲。研究的原创性——主要岛屿市场专门从事阳光和海滩旅游，排除了来自专业旅行者、探亲访友者或愿意承担游客较少目的地旅行费用的游客的干扰。
