Abstract
Sports Actas a Function of Nautical Tourism Development in Croatia and in the Mediterranean, II. part
Highlights
The exploitation of the maritime domain covering 1/3 of the state’s area has not been economically assessed. This is a paradox, since the models of exploitation of the maritime domain, together with the touristic land, are the basic prerequisites for the growth of investment in tourism accounting for almost 20% of the Croatian GDP
The Croatian economic literature has not addressed the issue of sport and utility port operation or their berthing capacity.Panžić (2010) is one of the few who has analyzed in detail the sports seaports in comparison to the nautical tourism ports
Berths at cruise ports / Vezovi u lukama nautičkog turizma The activities at the special purpose seaports, including the nautical ports, are performed by legal and natural persons based on the obtained concession
Summary
Summary Maritime domain is of great importance for the Republic of Croatia because it represents a developmental foundation of Croatian tourism, especially nautical tourism in which sports ports have not participated so far. In such proccess it should be noted that activities in sports ports are regulated by the Sports Act. Accordigly, the aim of this paper is to evaluate both positive and negative factors which reflect on the economic interests and on the economic effects. In this study we used methods of analysis and synthesis, and when we were analysing and comparing Croatia with other Mediterraen countries (Italy, Spain, France) we used the comparison method. 797:34(094.5) Preliminary communication / Prethodno priopćenje Paper accepted / Rukopis primljen: 2. 10. 2017
