Abstract
Introduction The management of coastal and marine environments is of interest to all professionals and students of tourism. Such environments are particularly attractive to tourists; indeed, they have in many cases been ‘loved to death’ – damaged beyond repair by tourist activity. There is an evident link between protection from tourist activity and the biodiversity and ecological health of the waters that tourists swim in, and from which are caught the fish and crustaceans they dine on. It is therefore encouraging to read about technical solutions that can assist in this protection. In this Exploring the Case, we make reference to the Soel Yachts Case Study but also to an article by Douglas McCauley, a professor of marine biology who has written about the use of tracking technologies, such as by satellite. These two sources are a good starting point for research into the protection of ocean environments.
