Managing tourism destinations is an important part of controlling tourism's environmental impacts. Destination management can include land use planning, business permits and zoning controls, environmental and other regulations, business association initiatives, and a host of other techniques to shape the development and daily operation of tourism-related activities. (see Sustainable Tourism Info-Sheets}

The potential benefits for destinations, communities, business operators and tourism agencies that can be achieved through effective Destination Management Planning include:

  • improved destination competitiveness:
    • Increased destination appeal resulting in increased visitation and yield.
    • Competitive advantages.
    • Ongoing investment in tourism.
  • increased visitor satisfaction:
    • Delivering on the brand promise.
    • Increased repeat visitation.
    • Enhanced destination reputation.
  • economic, social and environmental sustainability:
    • Increase in tourism's contribution to destination's economy.
    • Community support for tourism development.
    • Controlling tourism's environmental impacts.
    • Long term industry viability.
  • effective partnerships:
    • Avoiding duplication of resources.
    • Bringing a focus to developing the full visitor experience from arrival through to departure.
    • Increasing the profile of tourism in regional destinations.
    • Minimising any conflicts that may arise between tourism and other sectors.
  • continuous improvement:
    • Early awareness of emerging trends.
    • Development of innovation and new technology.
    • Constant refreshing of destination brand.
