Abstract(s)
Portugal é um destino com elevada qualificação para a prática turística, dado que dispõe
de recursos diversificados ao longo do seu território. Apresenta-se como um destino
altamente qualificado para a prática de surf que, por causa do litoral extenso e irregular,
lhe permite ter ondas para todos os graus de dificuldade.
Peniche é um dos destinos de surf em Portugal que mais turistas atrai anualmente, por
dispor de uma localização estratégica a nível territorial e, além de conter características
únicas para a prática da modalidade, apresenta também outros recursos de interesse nas
proximidades. Ademais, a procura pela dinamização e promoção do turismo de surf e da
própria modalidade per si por parte das entidades governamentais permitiu que Peniche
apresentasse um aumento gradual da procura turística e, posteriormente, fosse eleita
Capital da Onda e palco de eventos de cariz mundial, como o Rip Curl Pro Peniche
(atualmente conhecido como MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal). Assim, o turismo de surf
tornou-se relevante para Peniche a nível socioeconómico, mas também para a valorização
do património e a dinamização da imagem de marca do destino.
A investigação analisa os efeitos do turismo de surf no concelho de Peniche nas últimas
décadas, identifica a perceção dos stakeholders em relação às alterações, e quais as
medidas que podem ser implementadas a médio-longo prazo de forma a dinamizar o
turismo de surf e desenvolver o destino. Para o efeito foram realizados 99 questionários
à comunidade residente, 25 questionários a outros stakeholders previamente definidos e
109 questionários a turistas e visitantes.
A partir dos resultados obtidos foi possível compreender, de forma geral, que tanto os
turistas/visitantes como os diversos stakeholders se encontram satisfeitos com a evolução
do turismo em Peniche e consideram o turismo de surf um dos principais fatores atrativos
da região. No entanto, mostram-se conscientes relativamente a medidas associadas à
sustentabilidade nos destinos e atividades turísticas, tendo por isso, sugerido
medidas/ações que permitam a dinamização sustentável do turismo de surf em Peniche.
