The WTM brings the Spanish tourism
industry to the British capital to participate in the tourism fair that for
Spain holds such importance, as British tourism is our number one client.
Turespaña’s official data on markets of
origin confirms that the British will
continue to be our premiere client
with more than 14 million visitors by
the end of 2002 and our best friend.
And we say friend because our respective futures in the tourism industry
are linked. That is why the Hosteltur
publishing group has arrived at the
WTM with this special issue in which
we analyse the statistics on British
tourism in Spain, the most important
new products offered by travel agencies and tour operators, and the
accommodation offer in general. That
is our aim: to reach all Britain’s travel agencies and tour operators with a
copy of this issue in order to provide a
new source of up-to-date information
on Spain’s extensive touristic offer,
particularly the offers in greatest
demand by British families, young
people, adults, couples and pensioners
who continue to choose Spain for their
holidays and to enjoy its climate, customs, peoples and culture.
That is why we are seeking the collaboration of all of the professionals in
Great Britain’s tourism sector to
improve this publication, whose aim is
to be a yearly reference point for the
specialised Spanish offer.
In these
pages, you will find new addresses and
different ways to get in contact with us
to suggest, rectify and propose any
improvements you consider will benefit our magazine, and of course, to
receive the information that we send to
all offices connected with tourism.
With this in mind, we would like to
send out a cordial greeting to all the
professionals participating in the
WTM and the trade which is the most

As far as British tourists’ accommodation is concerned, they mostly prefer to stay in hotels or similar establishments. In 2001, 72.3% stayed in
this kind of accommodation, compared
to 14.6% that chose to stay in private accommodation, such as a property
owned either by themselves or by
family or friends, an especially com-
WT
M
mon option in tourist destinations like
Andalucia or the Valencia region
(where approximately one in four British tourists uses this kind of accommodation). Accommodation in rented
properties is the choice of 9.3% of
British tourists that visit our
country. Although the makeup of the
kinds of accommodation used has not
varied with regard to 2000, there has
been a 2.5% growth in the use of
“private” accommodation outside
hotels.
British tourism had a strong presence
in practically all the main tourist destinations during 2001. Concentration
into a few locations was the
main feature again this year:

The United Kingdom is consolidating its position as
the main tourist market for Spain in 2002. This season, pending final figures, it is set to improve on
the excellent results of 2001, a year in which it was
the chief source country, with 14.1 million tourists
(28.4% of the total). With a 6.2% increase over
2000, it maintained the rhythm of growth of recent
years, although at a slightly slower pace. British
tourists spent a total of 111.9 million nights in

British tourists.
Tourist Spain in 2001
In 2001, 75.7 million foreign visitors
came to Spain, a growth of 1.7% on
the previous year. Of them, 65%
were tourists and the remaining 35%
day visitors, practically the same
share of visitor types as recorded in
the last five years.
The total number of tourists received
in 2001 rose to the record figure of
49.5 million, 3.4% more than in 2000
(1.7 million more tourists). The arrivals of day visitors, 26.2 million
over the year, displayed the opposite
tendency, with a slight fall on the previous year of 1.3% (340,000 fewer
day visitors). Tourists received in
our country recorded 423.6 million
overnight stays, 5% more than in
2000.
Source markets
In 2001, the breakdown of the main
source markets with Spain as their
destination, that is to say, their relative share of total arrivals, was
almost identical to previous years,
with clear a prevalence of British and
Germans over other nationalities:
- the United Kingdom stood out
once again in 2001as the most important market, with strong growth of
6.2% (more than 800,000 more tourists), which meant exceeding 14
million tourists for the first time;
- Germany, the second most important market, with more than 10.5
million tourists, felt the pinch of the
slowdown in its economy, which has
lasted for more than a year, and displayed a further downward trend in
the number of arrivals in Spain, closing 2001 with a year fall of 5.4%
(600,000 fewer tourists), which has
been felt in practically all domestic
destinations;
- France, the third source of tourism for our country, with 6.7 million
tourist and more than 16 million day
visitors (the major country of origin
of day visitors arriving to Spain), on
the other hand, registered considerable growth of 17.4%, making it the
most dynamic source market of 2001
(almost a million more visitors);
- other relatively less important markets were Italy (2.2
million tourists), the Netherlands (2.2
million), Belgium (1.6 million) and
Portugal (1.4 million).
Tourist destinations
As far as the major domestic tourist
destinations are concerned, it is
necessary to first point out the high
degree of geographic concentration
that
traditionally
characterizes
foreign tourism in Spain: in 2001,
The Canaries
The Canary Islands, Spain’s major
tourist destination with 21.7% of
arrivals of foreign tourists, received
a total of 10.7 million foreign tourists
in 2001, 1.1% more than in the previous year (113,000 more tourists),
a percentage point less than growth
registered in 2000. These tourists
previous year), in the four following
months, there was an almost 1% fall
(when a year earlier it had grown
more than 3% in the same months).
This downward trend in the winter
months is reminiscent of the repercussions that in the winter of 99/00
the change of millennium had on the
flow of tourist bound for the Canaries.
The average stay over the year stood
at 8 days, very similar to the figure
registered the previous year. In the
case of tourists staying in free
accommodation, either their own property or that of friends or family, the
average stay increased to 10 days.
Eighty-one per cent of tourists that
visit the Canaries stay in hotels,
followed in equal parts by free
stayed a total of 87.4 million nights,
an increase of 4.5% on the previous
year.
Generally speaking, the behaviour of
Spain’s major tourist destination last
year maintained the slight upward
trend it has experienced since the
beginning of 2000; although a clear
deceleration can be appreciated in the
last quarter of the year as a result of
the effect 11 of September on a destination that receives in the months of
October, November and December one
in four of its tourists each year. While in the period of January to August
the Canaries accumulated growth of
2% (slightly higher than the figure
registered for the same period the
accommodation (8%) and rented
accommodation (8%). In this region,
as in the Balearics, accommodation
outside hotels, hired accommodation,
and free accommodation belonging to
the tourists themselves or their
family or friends experienced the
greatest growth in 2001, in both
number of travellers and number of
nights stayed. Hotels registered a
slight decrease in number of travellers, while the number of nights stayed grew.
The main source markets of tourists
arriving in the Canaries are the United
Kingdom, a market that continues to
grow in importance for this destination year after year (its influence in
92% of tourists went to six regions;
in order of importance, these were:
the Canaries, the Balearics and Catalonia, with more than 10 million tourists each (63% of arrivals); followed by Andalucia (14.4% of arrivals,
more than 7 million tourists); the
Valencia region (9.4% of arrivals);
and Madrid (6%).
The Balearic Islands
Development in the Balearics in recent
years has been marked by a significant change of tendency with regard
to the dynamism displayed in 1997,
98 and 99, years in which remarkable
growth rates of around 7% were
recorded, in line with those also
registered on a national scale. The
first signs of a change of tendency
appeared during the first quarter of
2000, in full low season, months in
which there is traditionally growth at
a rate three or four times higher than
2001 in the Balearics displayed a
slightly more acute downward trend
than the previous year and it cannot
be attributed, more than residually,
to the effect of 11 September, which
was inevitably felt, although no more
than in other destinations. By the
month of August, the Balearics had
already experienced an accumulated
fall of 2% compared to the same
period of the previous year; a year
earlier, in 2000, the accumulated fall
over the year until August had been
0.6%, the same figure it closed the
year with. In the last quarter of the
year, the Balearics registered strong
year falls in October, November and
December, although their effect on the
results for the year as a whole were
less dramatic due the relatively small
influence tourist arrivals in the
months of November and December
the average for the rest of the months
of the year. In 2000, and for the first
time, three consecutive year falls
were recorded for January, February
and March. From that moment on, and
with the exception of Easter Week (in
April) and the months of June, July
and September, the rest of the months
of 2000 registered falls in the number
of foreign tourists compared to the
previous year. Ultimately, 2000 produced tourist figures that were practically identical to those of the
previous year (0.8% fewer
tourists).
have on arrivals in the year as a whole.
Despite the loss of around 230,000
tourists over the course of 2001, a
fall of 2.2%, the more than 10.2
million foreign tourists received,
20.6% of the total arrivals in Spain,
place the Balearics one again as the
second most important destination,
behind the Canaries, although with an
increasingly smaller advantage over
the following destination, Catalonia.
The total number of nights stayed by
tourists visiting this region in 2001
rose to 83.1 million, a slight increase

Kingdom has been losing relative

far inferior presence.
on the previous year (0.8%). The
average stay during the year was 8
days, practically identical to the
national average. In the case of tourist staying in hotels, the average fell
to 7 days, while those that stayed in
their own accommodation or that of
family or friends rose to 11 days.
As far as accommodation used by
foreign tourists visiting the Balearics
is concerned, 84% or tourists chose
hotel accommodation, followed by
free accommodation either belonging
to the tourists themselves or their
family or friends (8%), rented
accommodation (6%) and other types
of accommodation. Of all the types of
accommodation mentioned, the most
dynamic sector in recent years has
been outside hotels, especially rented
accommodation. Hotel accommodation, especially important in the Balearics (one in four nights spent hotels
in Spain are spent in the Balearics),
registered a fall in terms of number of
tourists, although the nights they stayed rose slightly.
On the subject of the country of origin
of the foreign tourists that visited the
Balearics last year, it is necessary to
point out the alarming decline in the
German market (around 10%), a
general phenomenon in the rest of
Spanish destinations, but especially
severe in the Balearics, and the
increase in the British market that
partially compensates the fall in German tourism. This meant British tourists occupied first place in the number of arrivals to the Balearics for
the second year running, ahead of the
Germans. These two markets represent 76% of tourists bound for the
Balearics, three out of every four
tourists. The rest of the markets with
much less importance, relatively speaking, showed a general decline.
Catalonia
Catalonia is consolidating its position
as the most dynamic destination in
Spain this year. 2001 can be seen as a
recovery year after the decline
registered in 2000, with the total
number of arrivals of foreign tourists
slightly over 10 million for the first
time, with growth over the year of
10.2% (practically 1 million more
tourists than the previous year),
®
which accounts for 60% of growth in
the number of tourists received in
Spain in 2001. This considerable
expansion establishes Catalonia as the
third most popular Spanish destination, with 20.4% of tourist arrivals,
a very short distance behind the Balearics, which received only 100,000
more tourists.
The number of tourists visiting Catalonia has increased by 2.7 million since 1997, which means its share of
arrivals in Spain as a whole in the
period 1997-2001 increased by
approximately two percentage points.
A large part of this destination’s
recovery in 2001 is due to the return
of arrivals by road (which account for
57% of yearly arrivals in Catalonia),
with a growth of 9%. Arrivals at airports have registered an appreciable
increase (12%) thanks to a good year
at the Prat airport in Barcelona.
The ten million tourists that arrived
in Catalonia in 2001 stayed a total of
85 million nights, 20% of all nights
foreign visitors spent in Spain as
whole, an increase of 11% on the pre-

vious year.
The average stay of tourists in Catalonia was, like the national average, 8
days. As is to be expected, the average stay increased slightly in the case
of accommodation in properties belonging to the tourists themselves or
their family or friends, and increased
even more in the case of rented
accommodation (12 days); while it
fell to 7 days in the case of hotel
accommodation.
In terms of accommodation used, 58%
of tourists stayed in hotels, followed
by those staying in their own property or the property of family or
friends (19%), those staying in rented accommodation (10%) and other
kinds of accommodation. The growth
in Catalonia in 2001 was concentrated
mainly in rented accommodation (one
in four nights spent in rented property
in Spain is spent in Catalonia), while
hotels hardly registered a change
compared to the previous year.
All source markets grew with regard
to the previous year, with particularly good growth from France (first

Q.- Have trends in the British
tourist market changed at all
in recent years?
A.- In recent years, there have
indeed been changes in demand, which
have become more apparent since the
events of 11 September. As of that
date, supply has had to adapt more
quickly to these changes, for example, greater flexibility when it comes
to travelling abroad, especially to
Spain, which has meant that the
rigidity that forced people to spend
seven or eight days in a destination
has been reduced thanks to the creation of low-cost airlines. This
means the stay and the package are
more suited to what the British
tourist wants, and along with this
there has been a very significant
increase in the demand for short
Manuel Butler, director of the Spanish
Tourism Office in London

individual British
tourism means we will
reach 14.5 million
arrivals in Spain this year”

stays linked essentially to urban
tourism. There has also been growth,
although on a smaller scale, in rural
tourism, golf tourism…
Q.- What position does Spain
occupy
right
now
on
the
British tourist’s list of preferred destinations?
A.- We’re still the leaders, although
we’ve lost something of our market
share. If a year ago we stood at 42%
of packages sold, we’re currently
around the 39% mark. If we take into
account all journeys, including business trips, Spain as a destination is
joint leader with France. That is to
say, the British market is the main
market for Spain, and it is gaining
more and more ground over the second big market, which is Germany.

Q.- What level of movement is
forecast for Spain at the end
of 2002?
A.- The figures we have until the
month of August are positive and we
hope to close the year with
similar results. What’s happened is that there’s been a
The Spanish Tourism Office in London, the first to be opened
overseas, has been promoting Spain, Britain’s favourite tourist
destination, since 1919. This intense work is carried out by a
broad team of professionals at the STO, an effort that has
been recognized and rewarded with four prizes this year from
the main British magazines covering the sector. It is ranked
best tourism office, as its director, Manuel Butler, told Hosteltur with deserved satisfaction. As well as this, Butler also
highlights the positive results forecast for the end of the
year, with approximately 14.5 million arrivals in Spain from the
United Kingdom. This is coupled with the fact that in the first
quarter of the year, due to the general crisis all over the
world, flights were cut to all destinations except Spain, a desvery significant increase in individual tourism, a phenomenon closely
linked to the increase in scheduled
flights to Spain from the United King-
dom, and there’s been a slight fall in
traditional organized tourism. This
fall has been more than compensated
by the increase in individual tourism,
“
There has
been an increase and
diversification in the offer
of air travel between Spain
and the United Kingdom”
which for the end of the year will
give us a slightly positive figure, we
could reach 14.5 million arrivals of
UK residents in Spain.
Q.- How do you rate relations
between the two countries?
A.- Relations between the two countries are excellent. We mustn’t forget that we are in a state of crisis,
and in spite of that, Spain has a very
high share of the British market with
respect to other competing destinations, even in prices. Maintaining and
slightly bettering figures for 2001,
setting a new record, proves that, as
well as market relations, personal
and professional relations between
the British and Spanish tourism sectors are based on mutual trust. And

that usually abounds.

The Spanish Tourism Bureau of

Q.- And as far as connections
are concerned?
A.- As far as connections between
the two countries are concerned, I
think it’s a reflection of what we
talked about earlier, seat capacity on
scheduled flights has increased by
20%, more or less. As well as the
increase in supply, there has also
been diversification, that is to say,
there are more companies offering
scheduled flights between Spain and
the United Kingdom, which can only
strengthen ties. It’s worth pointing
out that during the first quarter, air
connections with Spain increased
when exactly the opposite was happening in other European destinations, because we mustn’t forget
that 11 September caused a very
substantial reduction in flights and
supply. Movement towards Spain didn’t simply remain steady, it actually
increased. This is a tremendously
positive point.

The Canary Islands, The Balearic Islands, Costa del Sol and Levant
Spain, the world’s second
most popular tourist destination in 2001, surpassed only
by France, is also one of the
world’s leading beach resort
destinations, thanks to a long
list of beaches scattered
throughout the country.
There are magnificent,
impressive beaches on all of
the three coasts whose seas
wash the country: to the
north, with its rugged cliffs
and turbulent waters, and to
the east and south, washed by
the warm, calm waters of the
Mediterranean. But Spain’s
four aces, its best and most
appealing beaches, are the
beaches of the Costa del Sol in
southern Spain, Levant in the
east and the Canary and
Balearic Island archipelagos.
These are the beaches preferred by the tourists who
visit Spain for sun and sand,
most of whom come from the

The tourist industry has created many
routes in its short yet intense life.
Without a doubt, one of the most appealing of these is the route that follows the
sun. Or perhaps, it would be more precise to say the routes that follow the
sun, as there are more than one; fortunately, the sun does not belong exclusively to any one country or specific
geographical area. Spain, whom Nature
has endowed with outstanding and varied conditions for developing tourism,
possesses one of the best-known and
most appealing of these routes, which
originates in the Balearic Islands
in the Mediterranean, extends
towards the Straits of Gibraltar, includes the Levant coast
and the aptly-named Costa del Sol in
Andalusia, and culminates in the
Canaries, that group of fantasy islands.

Gran Canaria has 236 kilometres of

Maspalomas Dunes. Rocky cliffs predominate to the west and southwest,
while two types of coastline alternate in
the north and northeast, offering a wide
variety of sandy beaches and rocky
coves sprinkled with sand.

Gran Canaria is noted for its diversity,

Tenerife
Tenerife is well known internationally
as the Island of Eternal Springtime. Its
geographical location merits it a place in
an imaginary band circling the globe of
the world’s most privileged tourist settings and proves the reality of this nickname. Tenerife’s dominant trade winds,
its mountains and the Canary Island’s
cool water currents are responsible for
the invariably warm temperatures of
its coastal waters, at times even
warmer than the air temperature. In
general, the Island’s climate is mild,
temperate and moderate all year round.
There are no periods of intense cold or
blistering heat. Average temperatures
vary between 17 and 18º C in winter
and 24 and 25º C in summer. These are
very general and relative temperatures, applicable especially in the
coastal areas where tourist resorts and
attractions are located.
Tenerife is the largest of the Canary
Islands and despite its small area, 2034
square kilometres, possesses a surprising ecological diversity which results

The origin of Circo de Las Cañadas still

Canary Island’s largest national park. In
1989, the Council of Europe awarded the
park its highest ‘A’ category European
diploma. In 1994, this European Diploma was extended until 1999.
BALEARIC ISLANDS
Without a doubt, the Balearic Islands
have become the most important tourist
destination in the western Mediterranean. With a land area of slighter
over 5000 square kilometres, its 1238
kilometres of coastline abound with
excellent beaches and inviting and picturesque coves. From the rugged peaks
of the Tramuntana mountains in Mallorca, diverse variety of habitats in the
Albufera nature park in Grau, Mahon in
Menorca, enchanting landscape of Las
Salinas in Ibiza, to the long stretches of
sandy beach in Formentera, the geography of the Balearic Islands cannot be
savoured in a hurry. Each one of the
Balearic Islands is a micro-cosmos with
its own personality, a space endowed
with singularity, which is why millions
of tourists choose to spend their holidays in these islands year after year.
Mallorca
Approximately forty percent of the
area in Mallorca, called the Island of
Calm, is protected. Included are the
Albufera, Dragonera and Mondragó
nature parks, as well as the national
park of the islet of Cabrera. Furthermore, the entire Tramuntana mountain
range, which runs north to south along
the coast filling the horizon with an
incomparable play of colour, enjoys
maximum environmental protection.
Mallorca contains all the variety capable of charming the human eye. The long
sandy beaches in the southeast, foremost among them El Trenc and several
others neighbouring beaches, the
charming villages of the interior, the
capacity to astonish that the island
maintains are still unknown to those who
have succumbed to a stereotype image
of sand and sea. Not that these are lacking for visitors’ rest and relaxation, but
they deserve to be complemented by a
complete and comprehensive vision of
Mallorca, the real, unknown Mallorca.
Palma de Mallorca
Palma de Mallorca, capital of the
autonomous community of the Balearic
Islands, is located on the Bay of Palma,
in the southeastern part of the island.
Its average annual temperature is 16.8
ºC and annual rainfall measures 450
litres per square metre. 41% of the
Balearic’s population and 54% of Mallorca’s population is concentrated in
Palma. Founded in 122 AD by Quinto
Cecilio Metelo, who named it Palma, its
city limits expanded in the tenth century as a result of the impulse it received
from its Muslim governor, Isam alJawlani. During the 14th and 15th centuries, the city enjoyed an era of great
splendour thanks to its commercial
activity and its main monuments date
from this time. Palma’s medieval layout was preserved almost intact until
the 19th century when the city walls
were torn down (1872), several disentailed convents were turned into plazas
and outlying neighbourhoods were built
beyond the boundaries of the old walls
(El Molinar, La Soledad, Los Hostales,
Son Espanyol and Santa Catalina). After
1901, work was begun on a new district
and in the second half of the last centu-
ry, the city grew along its waterfront
(Paseo Marítimo) and the new district
expanded along the lines established at
the beginning of the century. As well as
its historical and cultural attractions,
the city of Palma offers its visitors
charming beaches located to the southeast (El Molinar, Can Pastilla, El Arenal)
and southwest (Cala Mayor, Palmanova
and Magalluf).
Minorca
Minorca, the easternmost Balearic
island, seduces all who know it, as it
maintains intact its rich natural and cultural heritage, the essence of pure
Mediterranean charm. With a surface
area of only 700 square kilometres, it
is an inviting island in which man feels
totally integrated, in which no point is
far away. The diversity and purity of
its touristic resources makes it the ideal spot for rest, relaxation and recreation. Its secluded coves, serpentine
natural harbours, light and beauty of its

landscape, skill with which its artisans
make leather articles, costume jewellery, Mahon cheeses, gin and lobster
stew are traditions that the Minorcans
have known how to maintain down
through the centuries.
The Island’s great natural, ecological
and environmental merit prompted
UNESCO to declare it a Biosphere
Reserve in 1993 and include it in a
unique worldwide network of enclaves.
A symphony of colours, nuances and
tonalities, the Island’s northern
landscape (tramuntana) is made
up of rolling hills separated by
wide valleys which open onto
superb beaches such as La Vall and Cala
Pregonda and singular geological formations such as Cap de Favàritx. In the
south (migjorn), a limestone platform
criss-crossed by narrow ravines from
north to south leads to tourist beaches
such as Cala en Porter and Cala Galdana,
and unspoilt coves such as Son Saura,
Cala en Turqueta, Macarella and es
Talaier.
Ibiza
Ibiza, or Eivissa, as it is officially
called in Catalan, is a land of sun and
frontiers - an amalgam of culture and
names. All the different peoples who
passed through Ibiza for four thousand
years left their mark on this island,
making it a harmonious Babel. It was the
White Island and the Island of Pines to
the Greeks, Ebussus to the Carthaginians, Ibosim to the Phoenicians and the
Hippie Island in the 1960’s. Ibiza and
Formentera make up the Pitiusas Islands
of the Balearic archipelago. Geographically, Ibiza is the southernmost of the
islands, the closest to the Spanish mainland, and the third largest island in the
archipelago, measuring 541 square kilometres. A land of contrasts and diversity, it balances the most absolute
avant-garde and modernity with the
heartbeat of cultural wealth and history, qualities which prompted UNESCO to
declare it World Heritage Site in 1999.
Crossroads of civilisations, strategic
point in Mediterranean navigational
routes linking east and west, its
medieval and renaissance walls made
Ibiza and Dalt Vila the best-defended
stronghold in the Mediterranean.
Cosmopolitan and bohemian, Ibiza conserves the hippie style of the late sixties in its street markets. New Ibizan
handicrafts emerge predominantly in
fashion, leather goods, ceramics, fine
and costume jewellery and is promoted
through various shows and sales fairs.
Adlib, Ibiza’s own fashion, is perhaps
its most well-known exponent, an
example of a phenomenon that emerged
spontaneously and which has consolidated its position over time...
Formentera
Formentera, the southernmost, smallest and least populated of the Balearic
Islands, with its marked personality and
charm is both separated and linked to
Ibiza only 12 miles away by the maritime lane Es Freus. Formentera has
been permanently settled for only three
hundred years. It maintains the spectacular beauty of its well-conserved
natural setting, magnificent crystalline
beaches and unvaryingly placid atmosphere such as can be found in ses Illetes
and Llevant. The definite and authentic
character of Formentera’s landscape
captivates its visitors, with its ancient
and important salt mines to the north,
two large natural salt-water pools
(Estany des Peix and Estany Pudent) and
two hills, Cap de Barbària to the south
and the Sa Mola plateau to the east,
ringed by cliffs.
Sa Talaiassa, the
island’s highest point (192 metres), is a
privileged spot from which virtually the
entire island and the islets situated
between Formentera and Ibiza can be
seen, weather permitting.
COSTA DEL SOL
The 161-kilometre long coastline of the
Costa del Sol is in the province of Malaga, in the western half of Mediterranean
Andalusia in southern Spain. Malaga
occupies a surface area of 7276 square
kilometres and is ringed by the
provinces of Granada, Cordoba, Seville
and Cadiz.
The Costa del Sol is a touristic jewel
sparkling in the sun of Andalusia, with
its white villages and whitewashed
houses; it is the province of Malaga’s
richest, most highly prized and most
universal patrimony. There are few
areas in the world that can boast of having 161 kilometres of coastline with the
best beaches, secluded coves and
largest number of recreational ports on
the Spanish coast, to the delight of
lovers of fishing and scuba diving, all
concentrated in such a small space from the village of Manilva in the west
to Nerja in the east.
There are those who claim with justification that the dozens of splendid beaches on the Malaga coastline, together
with its climate, are its main tourist
resource and that thanks to this combination of sea and sun, the Costa del Sol
has become Europe’s most complete
tourist destination. It is the spot chosen
by the majority of national and international tourists owing to its wide array
of activities, such as sunbathing, swimming, sports ranging from underwater
swimming to scuba diving, windsurfing
to sailing, motor boating to fishing or
simply enjoying life in any of the many
informal beach stalls which dot the
shores, savouring fried fish, succulent
shellfish or plain sardines grilled on a
spit while quaffing a well-chilled beer,
with one’s feet practically in the water.
The following are the best-known and
most popular beaches, perfectly supplied with medical and sanitary services, public showers, informal beach
stalls and restaurants, areas with beach
loungers, water sports, volleyball nets
and posts, car parks, docks for recreational crafts, paddleboats etc: Cala de

LEVANT
The Spanish Levant is made up of the
communities of Valencia and Murcia,
washed by the warm, placid waters of
the Mediterranean. Its long stretch of
coastline, beaches and small coves is
one of the best in Spain and one of the
best known in Europe. Quiet, secluded
beaches - impressive and majestic.

The Community of Valencia
Geographically, the Community of
Valencia is divided into two parts: the
interior and the coast. The former is
characterised by the rocky mountains
which form part of the Iberian
Cordillera and the Subbética mountain
range. The latter is characterised by
coastal plains, predominantly made up
of low, fine, sandy beaches and coastal
lagoons and marshes, some of which
have been drained. The highest points in
Valencia are Salinas Point, Cape Irta,
Cape Oropesa, the Columbrete Islands
(of volcanic origin, declared nature
parks in 1998), the Benavides Ravine,
Golas de Estany, Colomer and Palos, the
highly popular beaches of Canet, Puig,
Natzaret, Pinedo, Saler and others in
close proximity to the city of Valencia,

Peñeta del Moro), Xeresa, Oliva,
Gandía, Venecia, Piles, Almadraba
Point, Cape San Antonio, Cape la Nao,

Alicante, Cape and Bay of Santa Pola and
Cape Cervera.
Alicante
The most famous beaches in eastern
Spain can be found in Alicante. These
beaches with their fine sand are
endowed with all the infrastructures
required to guarantee a pleasant stay
for visitors. Without a doubt, the best
among them are the broad and quiet Saladar beach, Postiguet beach, located
right in the centre city, discreet
Albufereta beach, six-kilometre-long
San Juan beach, considered the very
best of all Levant’s beaches and
Guardamar beach, 11 kilometres of fine
sand and dunes, some of them secluded
Characteristics of supply
18-hole courses are the most common
on the whole, above all in those
regions that already attract many
tourists. On the other hand, in Green
Spain the courses are usually 9 holes.
The vast majority of courses are privately owned (90%). The seasons are
especially significant in the golf
tourism industry because it is an
activity that takes place in the open
comes mainly from foreign golfers,
while in Madrid and Barcelona, considerable local demand is enough to
keep the greens busy.
According to surveys, practically all
managers and directors of golf courses (90%) are in favour of building
more courses to satisfy demand. A
request that is often repeated refers
to the creation of municipal golf
courses on rural terrain or disused
land that would help to extend the
sport and increase its popularity. It is
worth remembering that the average
customer spends around 25 euros on
G O L F :
promotion of golf is a problem of
political will. There are no insurmountable obstacles in our regulations
to prevent the construction of golf
courses, except for projects being
carried out on especially protected
land where building is prohibited, in
which case the Spanish Supreme Court
intervenes (1977). In fact, in regions
that had passed legislation limiting
development
(Navarre
and
the
Balearics), they are now allowing new
projects to go ahead on plots that are
not classified as development land. On

air and in natural surroundings. Here
the weather, the fine weather, is the
predominant factor. That is why the
periods of greatest business activity
are concentrated in the spring and
summer, which can extend to other
months in areas with milder climates:
the Costa del Sol, Cadiz and the
Canaries, which has its high season in
winter. On Spanish golf courses, 80%
of domestic users are people that live
in the same region as the facilities on offer. However, in
tourist
regions,
demand
each visit to the golf course, and that
the average annual turnover of this
kind of business concern is just under
2 million euros.
Guide to building golf courses
The General Secretariat of Tourism in
Spain has released a guide especially
aimed at municipalities, property
developers and investors that could be
interested in building a golf course.
The guide points out that, as far as
legal aspects are concerned, it must
be taken into account that the public
vate promotion is non-existent
because of the cost of the terrain, and
the public authorities are under no
obligation to do more than what their
policy on the issue of sports facilities
dictates. For golf facilities to develop,
then, above all public golf courses, a
change of mentality is required on the
part of some political parties and
social groups that see golf as a very
expensive, elitist sport that has a
enormously negative impact on the
environment. Under current legislation, the effects any activity might
have on the environment are calculated according to the resources it consumes: water, energy, land, infrastructure and the waste it produces.
In the case of golf courses, property
developers have been persuaded to
bear in mind something that society
itself demands of them: that those
responsible for pollution should foot
the bill. Seen from a perspective
where what is economical is also ecological and what is ecological, economical, golf courses must participate
in the conservation of the environment and in promoting improvement;
they must also participate in restoring damaged areas; use recycled
water; take painstaking care with the
plants and animals in the area and
encourage new arrivals; and use all
technological means available to
ensure minimum impact on the natural
surroundings.
Golf and Profitability
The major problem, the most common
misdeed as far as golf projects are
concerned, is that they are a front for
land speculation, for investment in
property. Wherever there is a golf
course, it generates such a sensation
of quality of life that it attracts many
people drawn by the picture postcard
scenes of the course and its surroundings as a place to live, a greater
attraction than the sport itself. In
fact, the vast majority of people that
buy a home on the edge of a golf
course do not play. Speculation has
caused more than one central European golfer to boycott some courses
on the coast of Andalusia where the
amount of housing on offer has
increased to the point that players can
hear neighbours’ shouting and conversations between balconies from the
greens. This is led some tour operators to withdraw these courses from
their brochures. Instead of a golf
course, they are more like the public
park of a housing complex where it is
also possible to play golf.
Nowadays, golf courses are a sound
investment, good business, but only
when they are managed by professionals. A public course is also a good
investment, both if it is financed by
public funds or by a hotelier that is
willing to participate in the project in
return for a reconsideration of the
status of the land. There are also private property developers working on
public land in exchange for being
awarded management concessions.
Whatever the case, an 18-hole course
requires an estimated investment of
between 2.5 million and 8.5 million
euros, depending on various factors.
In this sense, it is worth remembering
that a local council can make golf
available to the public without having
to build an 18-hole course. Pitch and
putt, rural courses and recreational
areas are currently in vogue throughout Europe. The investment required
can be as little as 120,000 euros. In
any case, research carried out by
specialized golf and golf tourism consultants coincide in that courses are
good business. Publicly backed courses are beginning to emerge and are
having a positive economic and social
impact. They provide a solution for
agricultural land that has fallen into
disuse and encourage tourism in the
interior and in rural areas. They represent the international golf tourism
on offer. And, above all, they are a
business venture for property developers and hoteliers thanks to the
added attraction that golf gives their
projects.
GOLF AND HOTELS
Golf in Lliria, Valencia
Three tourist projects have been
approved in Lliria (Valencia), including
an 18-hole golf course. The plans represent a total investment of 24 million
euros and will create 500 jobs.
The holiday complex will be located
between the municipalities of Lliria
and Benissano and includes the construction of a maximum of 2,200 luxury houses, with 325,000 square
metres of woodland and a budget of
more than 24 million euros. The company has made the commitment to set
aside more than 1.6 million euros to
increasing services of general urban
interest.
Majorca and the Marriott
Marriott International’s golf course at
Son Antem, in the resort of Mallorca
Marrito Son Antem, is working to
capacity (the first part opened in
1994). The project is fruit of a joint
venture between a Majorcan family,
the Cristoforettis, and the American
multinational. The Son Antem golf
course runs for 6,325 metres, the
gentlemen’s slope is 130/72.6,
ladies’ 123/72.7, par 72. The new
course, named the West Course, was
opened in 2001 and runs for 6,542
metres, the gentlemen’s slope is
130/72.6 and the ladies’ 127/73.6,
par 72.
Hotel Oasis Islantilla
Hotel Oasis Islantilla is one of a series
of establishments that together make
up Atlantee Golf, an initiative backed
by the Andalusian regional government. The aim is to promote golf in the
Cooperativa Olecolay M-Capital, as
well as Vallehermoso Unicaja and
Cajasur). Investment in the establishment exceeds 12 million euros, it has
180 rooms on 10,000 square metres
of land. The golf course has 18 holes,
two putting greens and a club house,
which has required an investment of
around 7.2 million euros.
three Andalusian provinces that face
the Atlantic: Huelva, Seville and
Cadiz.
The initiative includes 10 of the best
golf courses, as well as nine hotel
complexes in the area. Atlantee Golf
(Andalucia Atlantica Golf Clubs) has a
web site, www. atlantee-golf.com,
where you can book green fees and
starting times at any of the participating courses. In the case of the
Oasis Islantilla, for example, it provides information on facilities, services and prices. The Oasis Islantilla is
part of the Islantilla holiday home
complex, very close to three of the
courses participating in the Atlantee
Golf initiative: the 27-hole Islantilla
Golf Resort, the 18-hole Isla Canela
Golf and Golf Nuevo Portil, also 18

Marina de Cope in Murcia
The regional government in Murcia
has plans to develop the areas of
Marina de Cope and Covaticas, on an
unspoilt stretch of coastline between
Mazarron and Aguilas, where it wants
to build 30 hotels and 8 golf courses.
The idea is to reclassify 2,000
hectares of agricultural and rural land
in Marina de Cope and a further 800 in
Covaticas as a development area. A
huge complex, with five golf courses
and a marina, is planned for the first
site. There will be further three
courses on the second site.
Between them, they will be
served by some 30 hotels

Nueva Entrerríos in Málaga
Nueva Entrerrios SA will invest
around 180 million euros in the construction of an 18-hole course, a four
or five-star hotel and 800 holiday
homes in Mijas (Malaga). Entrerrios is
a professional, 18-hole course that is
maintained using recycled water. The
circuit has been designed by the same
team that produced Valderrama and
will be a par 72. It will cost around 12
million euros to complete. Nueva Entrerrios SA’s initiative is to develop a
top quality establishment located in
1.2 million square metres of terrain.
The complex forms part of Valle del
Golf, taking in around 10 million
square metres in an area of Mijas that
already has four golf courses and
plans for a further two, in addition to
the project already mentioned.

Sotogrande
NH Hoteles, which owns more than
94% of Sotogrande SA, has launched
La Reserva, a new project set in more
than 500 hectares of land. The first
phase of development, currently in
progress, consists of 150 individual
plots surrounded by golf courses and
30 houses, and has been on sale since
February. La Reserva will also include
a private golf club with an 18-hole
course, which is well on the way to
completion. Total investment in this
first phase will amount to 30 million
euros. Another 18-hole course is at
the planning stage.

Locations for holding meetings
In 2001, congress centres were
the type of site most used to hold
meetings, in 34.35% of cases,
closely followed by hotels, which
obtained the greatest percentage in
2000.
In cities of between 200,000 and
500,000 inhabitants, the use of
congress centres (51.55%) is far
superior to the use of hotels
(22.49%). However, in cities of
more than 1,000,000 inhabitants
the results are inverted, hotels
occupying 53.62% and congress
centres 17.08%.
The use of congress centres is
inversely proportional to the size
of the city. The smaller the city,
the more congress centres are
used, except in cities of less than
200,000 inhabitants, where it
greatly depends on the kind of
meeting taking place and, as a
result, there are considerable
changes from year to year in percentages showing the kind of site
used to hold meetings.
Type
of
accommodation
requested
The vast majority of delegates
(96.34%) stay in hotels. It is also a
proportion that remains constant in
all cities, regardless of size. More
than half of delegates (62.52%)
choose to stay in a 4-star hotel. If
this figure is added to those that
choose the 3-star option, it
amounts to 87.95%. Cities of less
than 200,000 inhabitants register
the highest percentage of delegates
staying in 4-star hotels, 68.36%.
It is worth mentioning that during
2001, there was a 2.31% fall in
the number of delegates staying in
5-star hotels.
WT
M
Forecasts for 2002
Of the cities consulted, 62.5% consider the congress market will
grow in terms of number of events.
And 64.3% (that is to say, a
slightly more optimistic percentage) consider the market will grow
in terms of number of delegates. Both percentages

Congress tourism in
Spain in 2001 is
regaining strength
after the international
crisis
2001 will go down in the history of international tourism marked by 11 September and its direct consequences on all markets. As far as so-called congress
tourism is concerned, these events put a brake on congresses planned for the last quarter of the year and the
first quarter of 2002. However, when analysis is made
of the official statistics, of figures provided by congress organizers, the cities that form part of the Spain
Convention Bureau and the Junior Minister for Trade’s
Office, the conclusion is that 2001 was a good year.
This is due both to the amount of events held in our
country and the number of delegates that participated,
making an economic contribution -daily expenditure2002 WTM - November 2002 - page 34
egates) are substantially smaller
than those given in 2000 as forecasts for 2001. As far as the
increase in daily expenditure is
concerned, expectations are not so
optimistic and most tend to think it
will remain steady.
As for the type of meeting, the
greatest prospects for growth in
number of participants are for congresses, while there is no substantial difference as far as straight
meetings go. Perhaps what is most
noteworthy is that there is a tendency to be less optimistic about
2002 than 2001.
With respect to cities, those that
have the greatest expectations for
2002 are those of less than
500,000 inhabitants, both in terms
of number of meetings and number
of delegates. However, cities of
more than 1,000,000 inhabitants
consider that the daily expenditure
of delegates will increase in 2002,
while those between 500,000 and a
1,000,000 think it will remain
steady and those of less than
500,000 have divided opinions
between it increasing and remaining steady.
Barcelona
secures
the
EIBTM. The Catalan capital
will host the world’s most
important
congress
and
incentive fair between 2004
and 2008.
Barcelona will be the new site of
the world’s most important congress, convention and incentive
travel fair. Between 2004 and
2008, the Catalan capital will host
the prestigious EIBTM, which has
been held in Geneva since 1988.
The city came first in the selection
process, says Reed Travel Exhibitions, the company that stages the
fair. Barcelona came out on top in
the final round, ahead of the candidatures of Geneva, Lisbon, Madrid
and Vienna, in a process that 10
cities from all over Europe took
part in.
Barcelona will host the EIBTM for
five years. The first edition in the
city will be held at the Fira de
Barcelona facilities on Gran Via
(M2) between 30 November and 2
December 2004. The fair organized
by Reed attracts around 10,000
people
between
buyers
and
exhibitors. Its importance, however, goes beyond this volume of
activity, since it is the fair of the
professionals that decide the locations for companies and associations to hold their professional
encounters. That is to say, people
that programme congresses, conventions and incentive trips from
all five continents will meet in
Barcelona for five years, with the
subsequent publicity for the city
which that entails. As a result,
Barcelona could experience a con-
siderable increase in the professional meetings its hosts each
year.
Barcelona is the chosen option taking into account the preferences of
exhibitors, the group of co-organizers, the invited buyers and other
specialized visitors “because of
the dynamism and vibrant
life on the streets of the
city, the category and number of 4 and 5-star hotels,
the restaurants, its many
attractions
and
the
nightlife”, factors that, according to Reed, have contributed to the
decision.
The general manager of Reed Travel Exhibitions, Tom Nutley, says
that “Barcelona finally came
out ahead by a clear margin”
in a process in which “the levels
of presentation and competitiveness between the finalist
cities have been very high”.
According to Nutley, “Barcelona
is the city in the world that
has most professional meeting contracts, according to
the ICCA ranking, and the
management group of EIBTM
was enormously impressed
by the enthusiasm, commitment, experience and drive
of Barcelona”.

In the 80’s, with the increase in
number of privately owned cars,
parks were built between cities to
attract tourists as well. In the
90’s, entrepreneurs in the sector
were encouraged and began to conceive great theme parks (just one
of the offers in the amusement park
family). Port Aventura symbolised
the beginning of a new touristic
destination linked to sun and sand
–Tarragona, Salou– and daytime
recreation. The rest of the great
Spanish parks, Isla Mágica, Terra
Mítica, Warner Bros... have grown
as a result of the increasing new
demand for this type of product in
Spain.
Isla Mágica in Seville is the first
theme park to be located in a city
centre, covering a surface area of
364,711 square metres, and has
proven itself to be a highly attractive recreational product. The park
recreates the atmosphere and
society of the 16th century, an era
that shone with the discovery of
new worlds explored by Spanish
pioneers. Isla Mágica received
more than five million visitors in
its first five seasons and this year
the number is expected to exceed
eight hundred thousand visitors.
This sixth season has lasted from
March 23 to November 3.
More
than 160 days of fun in the 16th
century.
Connections to the park benefit
from an excellent communications
network. The motorways and tollroads that link Seville with the rest
of Spain are outstanding. The AVE,
Spain’s high-speed train, leaves
from the Santa Justa train station
located a few minutes from the
park. Lastly, San Pablo, the international airport, is only fifteen
minutes from Isla Mágica. Vegetation and water play a special role.
Isla Mágica has over 500,000
plants, 49,000 square metres of
garden and 42,000 square metres
of water.

Visitors immerse
themselves in the atmospheres
created in each of the seven theme
areas making up the park: Seville,
Puerto de Indias; Quetzal, The Fury
of the Gods; Puerta de América,
Amazonia, Pirates’ Lair, The Fountain of Youth and El Dorado each

Spain’s amusement parks are evolving, as have those
in America and Europe.
These last few years have
brought about changes in the sector dedicated to
mass recreation.
These parks are installations which
require an extraordinary number of square metres; in
fact, amusement parks are the touristic enterprise
which consume the most space. The first amusement
parks were built in Spain at the end of the 1960’s as
Terra Mítica collaborates
with leading companies in
joint promotional campaigns
Terra Mítica has initiated a series
of joint actions with prestigious
brands to establish promotional
campaigns whose goal is to attract
more clients to the park in high

are being carried out with brands
belonging to the multinational com-

pany Viacom, owner of Paramount
Parks, whose directors have been
responsible for the new management of Terra Mítica since an agreement reached last October. Another case is Blockbuster, the chain
of video clubs which offers a 20%
discount off the entrance price to
the theme park with each film rental. Furthermore, MTV, the music
television channel, will be shooting
a episode of Selec, its most popular
program in Terra Mítica in July.
Another similar campaign will be
carried out together with Viacom’s
television channel, Paramount
Comedy Channel, and its programme Zoolander, which will be shot in
the park. Programme technicians
are already in Terra Mítica deci-
ding on and preparing the sites
where the scenes will be shot. The
programme will raffle off weekend
packages for the recreational
resort in exchange for advertising
at different sales points.
Hollywood on the Manzanares
Warner Bros. Movie World brings
to Spain and specifically to Madrid,
the glamour and magic of Hollywood and the world of Warner Bros.,
inspired in its well-known films
and cartoons in the form of the
Warner Bros. Park Madrid theme
park, built with an investment of
380 million euros.
The park project, with a maximum
daily capacity of 30,000 visitors,
a total of 2,6 million visitors per
year, covers a surface area of 250
hectares, of which 150 will be
constructed and 45 hectares will
be dedicated to protected areas
including 10 gardens, in which
10,000 trees will be planted. The
park will provide direct employment for 1600 people.
Located in San Martín de la Vega,
the park is only 25 km from
Madrid, a trip that can be made in
15 minutes from the centre of the
Spanish capital and 30 minutes
from the Madrid Barajas airport.
The trip by the shuttle train leaving
from the Atocha station takes 20
minutes.
The park has five theme areas:
"Hollywood
Boulevard",
"Carton Village", "Old West
Territory", "DC Super Heroes World" and "Warner Bros.
Studios". There are a total of 25
attractions in these areas, including 5 roller coasters, 1 free-fall
tower, 1 simulator, 3 water rides
and 7 shows.
Among the more
spectacular roller coasters are
‘Superman, the Ride of Steel’, running 1200 metres to a
height of 46,3 metres at a speed of
100 km per hour, ‘Batman, the
Escape’, a coaster suspended at
33,7 metres, running 780 metres
at 80 km per hour and ‘The Wild,
Wild West Roller Coaster’,
running 1275 metres to a height of
40 metres at a speed of between
80 and 100 km. per hour. Europe’s
highest free fall tower, ‘ T h e
Vengeance of the Enigma’,
reaches 100 metres high and has
different ascent and descent programs. The fastest descent can be
done in 2,85 seconds, producing 2
negative Gs. These attractions can
accommodate 23,000 visitors per
hour.

However, cruise tourism is of
most economic interest since the
average daily expenditure on this
kind of visit to our country
amounts to 150 euros, a little more
in the case of those that call in at
Barcelona, the Balearic Islands and
the Canaries, because of hotel
expenses. According to provisional
statistics, the traffic of cruise
ships through Spanish ports has
risen at a rate of approximately
4% in recent years, although in
2001 there were 2.1 million cruise
passengers, a rise of 8.2%.
Seventy-five per cent of Spanish
cruise tourism is located in the
Mediterranean, around 15% in the
Canary Islands, and the remaining

10% divided among the Iberian
peninsula’s northern ports (Atlantic and Bay of Biscay). Forecasts
for 2002 point to a moderate
increase in line with previous
years, that is to say, 4% more
than in 2001 (obviously awaiting
developments in the American, British and German
markets).
Spain has become
the third most visited country in the
world over the last
few years and has
begun to capture a
moderate share of
the market as a cruise
destination. This
year, more than 51
million
tourists will come to
le. Planned investment in infrastructure for passengers and cruise
ships amounts to more than 370
million euros.
According to the Institute of Tourism Studies, in 2000 only 2.1% of
the 3.2 million journeys that Spaniards made abroad were on a cruise ship (67,000 voyages, compared to 754,000 British, 306,000
German, 230,000 Italian and
190,000 French voyages. Figures
for 2001 say that more than
110,000 Spaniards travelled on a
cruise) while last year that figure

Spanish cruise industry and it can

Spanish operators
There are two main operators:
Pullmantur Cruises and Spanish
Cruise Line (SCL). Both sell voyages from Spanish ports: cruises
for nights/days in the Western
Mediterranean, leaving Barcelona
every Monday. They are affordable
(from 500 to 1,600 euros) and
have succeeded in popularizing
cruises in Spain this year.
European operators
Costa, Festival Cruises and now
the recently launched Island Cruises stand out. They offer sevennight cruises in the Western Mediterranean, the first two leaving
from Barcelona, while Island Cruises has its base in Palma de Major-
ca. The cruises are generally more
expensive than the previous operators (around 1,200 euros on average).
Costa Crociere was the market
leader in Spain in 2001, with more
than 36,400 cruises sold (20%
more than in 2000). Costa has a
considerable business base in Spain
as the Italian operator has been
present in our country for many
years.

15,000 cruises in 2001, doubling
figures for 2000. The increase in
Following the international model on
which ski resorts are based, maritime resorts are organisations that
commercialise one single product,
covering different tourism companies, all located in the same place,
whose services are directed at tourists in search of a holiday with
water sports as its main focus of
attraction. In this sense, maritime
resorts combine an interesting mix
of leisure activities and accommodation, with the maritime world as its
source of inspiration. And this is not
all! Not only are the accommodation,
water sports activities, commercial
and leisure centres and children’s
play areas and entertainment all
marketed together, but all the complementary facilities available in the
area, which help to make the resort
such a total all-rounder, are also
taken advantage of. The idea is to
offer individual tourists and those
travelling as a family or in groups a
destination where they can find
everything with a maritime flavour
that they could possibly want: hotels
with swimming pools right next to
the sea, yacht clubs where they can
hire all kinds of different craft,
water sports centres, diving schools, sea trips etc. With this new seabased holiday product, combined
activities can be marketed all year
round, directed at families, groups of
young people, company incentive
trips, school trips and the elderly,
together with special activities for
the disabled and, of course, a whole
range of activities to complement sun
and sand tourism.
In surveys on Spanish holiday products, British tourists who visit the
country highlight its climate, beaches and sea. And this is a sea where
water and under-water sports are
possible almost twelve months of the
year, thus the importance of this
new product for British agents in
search of new ways of luring clients
to a destination that tourists are
already well familiar with.

The most comprehensive of
holiday products
As a tourist destination, a
maritime resort offers tourists a single holiday package
In 1996 Spain’s first maritime resort was founded on the
coast of Murcia’s Mar Menor. Since then, a total of nineteen
have been created to date around the Spanish coast. Given
the boom in this type of holiday product, it is now regulated
by the Secretary of State for Tourism, which grants the title
to specific locations and registers them as members of the
Red Española de Estaciones Náuticas (or Spanish Network of
Maritime Resorts). By the end of the year 2002, this network
Maritime resorts:
Spain´s new tourism
product
with a variety of different opportunities, all in the same place: accommodation, sailing, diving, windsurfing, canoeing, water skiing, jet
skiing, sea trips, boat hire......and, in
addition, activities unrelated with
the sea that the same centre will also
arrange, like horse-riding, golf,
cycling, hiking, cultural trips, gastronomic outings, shopping, restaurants and, needless to say, leisure
facilities such as theme parks, discotheques or public festivals. The
aim of a maritime resort is to act as
a reference for tourists, i.e. it is a
tourist destination where they can
find everything that could possibly
interest them, mainly related with
the sea, but also with the area’s wide
range of other tourism products and
complementary facilities, without
forgetting thermal centres, spas,
thalassotherapy centres and holiday
fitness centres.
The existing maritime resorts
Murcia, with its Mar Menor, was the
very first maritime resort. This is
because Spain’s eastern coast is one
of the most attractive tourist areas.
Indeed the British are well aware of
this, when they rate Benidorm one of
Spain’s top three destinations. At
present, the eastern Spanish coast
has the following maritime resorts: Mar
Menor, Marina Alta, Bahía de Altea, Alicante and Columbretes.
Towards the south are the maritime
resorts of Costa Tropical, Tarifa, Sotogrande, and Isla Cristina. To the north of
the region are those of Salou-Cambrils,
Tarragona i la Geltru, Palamos,
and
L’Estartit.
During the last few years, maritime
resorts have also been established in
tourist areas of Spain’s Atlantic and
Cantabrian coasts. This is the case of
Gijón-Costa Verde, Bahía de Santander,
Llanes, and Rias Baixas, and Sada in
Galicia. This makes a total of 19 maritime resorts, which will shortly be extended to include new ones.
Bahía de Altea
This area of Spain’s eastern coast is set
to be the country’s
leading maritime
resort. Its location
next to the Mediterranean Sea and
its special climatic
conditions (with
over 350 days of
sunshine per year,
permitting
all
kinds of water
sports and underwater activities)
make this a destination with a great
future ahead of it.
Surrounded by the
municipalities of
Altea, Alfaz del
Pi, Benidorm and Calpe, Bahía de Altea
fulfils all the stipulations needed to
become a maritime resort. From the
project’s very outset, it had the extensive backing of both Altea’s business
sector and that of other towns in the
region, with the participation of companies from the water sports and hotel
sectors. At the same time, a regional
balance is maintained, as Bahía de Altea
has a unique maritime ecosystem and a
long tradition of water sports activities.
The Bahía de Altea maritime resort is
fundamental in complementing Altea’s
tourist and cultural facilities and it
offers great benefits, including the fact
that it helps to reduce the seasonal
nature of tourism, as package holidays
will be offered all year round.

Palacio Ca Sa Galesa has been conceived as a unique accommodation
venue set in the heart of Palma.
Waking up in any of its 12 rooms is like a dream. Antique Majorcan
furniture from the 12th to 19th centuries, avant-garde paintings and sculptures
are combined with the most modern services available, what’s more you feel
like you are at home.
The hotel is located in the historic city centre. Built in 1571 and recently
restored, this palace has become one of the most exquisite establishments on
the island.
Surrounded by paintings, sculptures and antiques, the guest has the
sensation of staying in a private museum.
The owners of the hotel have managed to achieve a unique environment in
the heart of a Mediterranean city such as Palma, where passing through its
salons, bathing in the unique indoor swimming pool of the Gothic quarter,
sitting next to the chimney reading or listening to the cheering sound of a
fountain become unforgettable experiences, in addition to a solarium from
which one can enjoy magnificent views of the Bay of Palma and of the
Cathedral, framed by a blue infinity in which it is impossible to tell where the
sea ends and the sky begins.

And according to the latest OMT
studies, a significant part of young
tourists travel to learn about the
people of their generation, to share
their experiences and lifestyles and
to find activities that, under the
concept of culture, stir new sensations. This explains the increase in
student tourism at big explosions of
popular culture like San Fermines in
Pamplona, the April Fair in Seville,
or the tourist areas where nightlife
is the prominent feature. Generally
speaking, what is called “fiesta”

in part passive: they want to see
and learn, and in part active, they
want to participate.
Surveys reveal that 56% of cultural tourists visit museums and 33%
visit monuments. The remaining
cultural activities on offer are restricted by the problem of language
and the lack at times of clear and
attractive information for the consumer. The “souvenir photo”
effect and recognizing culture studied at school, as well as knowledge of heritage sites seen on television are what move tourists to visit
these places.
The way shows are consumed by
tourists deserves a separate study.
This is a special market with a stable demand that for lack of seats
remains steady with no major changes or possibilities of growth.

The Oxford Archaeological Guide to
Spain lists 138 places of archaeological interest. A high percentage of
these are in a deplorable state, lacking even the most basic visiting
facilities. In addition, Spanish
museums continuously close sections of their exhibition rooms for
repairs, at times without warning
or informing the tourist office.

Ministry of Education and Culture,
in Spain there are 35 locations
declared World Heritage Sites by
UNESCO. More than 50,000 Places
of Cultural Interest have been catalogued by the regional governments.
Thirteen thousand of them are historic sites, gardens, monuments,
archaeological sites, and more than
800 museums of all kinds. The same
sources say that this immense
variety of culture on offer has
meant that each year more than
100 million visits to this type of

prominently.

unique buildings linked to history
and culture. The number of historic
buildings housing hotels amounts to
700, with growth of 56% in the last
five years, which contrasts with
growth of 17% in normal hotel
the star products as far as cultural
tourism goes are the following and
in this order: the cities of Barcelona (taking into account the attraction of Gaudi), Madrid and the Andalucia region as whole. They are
followed by the cities of Granada,
Seville and the Camino de Santiago.
In third place are the Guggenheim
Museum in Bilbao, the cities of Cordova, San Sebastian and Toledo, and
the tourist circuits that visit several cities with a programme of cultural visits and museums.
This list means we can say that the
star destinations in Spain are 5
cities, 1 region and two products.
These cultural tourist destinations
are the major players, but domestic and international tour operators
consider Spain as a country with
great cultural diversity, in which
the previously mentioned products
stand out, helped by an excellent
accommodation in the same period.
Currently, hotel accommodation in
historic building occupies 13% of
the total, 700 establishments.
Catalonia and Andalucia are the
regions with the greatest number of
establishments of this type. The
third most important region is
Asturias. At the bottom of the list
are La Rioja, Murcia and Navarre.
The vast majority of Spanish establishments are grouped into different organizations, but there is an
increasing tendency to take advantage of historic buildings as hotels
on the part of the big hotel chains
like AC Hoteles (with six establishments) and Sol Melia (which has
refurbished five buildings and will
open a further two next year).
Estancias de España is a hotel group
whose common denominator is locations in old buildings. Hotels and

In addition to health tourism figures
for spas, centres dedicated to talasotherapy must also be accounted
for, as well as other health and
beauty centres that combine medicinal and curative therapies with the
use of sports facilities in which
body care is the main attraction.
This kind of tourism of health holidays is responsible for generating
more than 144 million euros in
direct income in these establishments and related accommodation.
The sector is further boosted by a
significant economic contribution
from additional services related to
the spas. In short, in hotels where
this kind of service is on offer,
coming under the category of SPA
(salute per l’aqua), direct income
represents 10% of the total.
In the case of spas and talasotherapy centres, 100% of income is
derived from services offered to
the customers. From 500 euros to
1,500 euros a week, depending on
the category of the establishment
and the services received.
Current demand is mainly Spanish,
guests that visit establishments in
or near their home area. There are
spas and health centres all over
Spain, as well as hotels and centres
specializing in SPA services. However, international demand for this
kind of product is growing every
year. In Andalucia, for example, it
is estimated that 50% of international demand for health holidays
comes from the traditional markets
in central Europe. This demand is
growing continuously at a rate of
14-16%, according to the establishment and kind of service.

associated with health, which is reflected in the 128

grouped together into one product.
It is necessary to differentiate
services according to their specialization:
Spas or Thermal Springs
These are establishments offering
medicinal mineral waters, certified
for public use by central government. They have the correct facili-
ties, from a technical and health
point of view, to carry out the
medical treatment prescribed. That
is to say, they are establishments
that apply medicinal therapies prescribed since Roman times to alleviate ills and recover physical balance. It is a sector that is subject
to government regulation that
ensures that staff receive proper
medical training in the application
of
thermal
remedies.
The
crenotherapy, hydrotherapy and
complementary techniques used in
the spas are applied at a rate,
intensity, duration and frequency
previously established by a doctor.
Spain has more than 2,000 natural
springs recognized for their mineral and medicinal properties. In fact,
Spain could be said to be the spa of
Europe. One hundred and twenty
eight establishments are gathered
in the National Spa Association,

quality services and have attained
excellent standards in terms of

which received 670,000 customers last year, generating an
income of 144 million euros. Their
main function is to use the medicinal mineral water to prevent,
improve and cure all kinds of people
and ailments. But they are more
than that. Nowadays, the pursuit of
health means that these centres are
not exclusively for the sick, but
also for healthy, young adults that
take holidays to truly rest, relax
and recover, in short, to return
home “feeling like new”.
Talasotherapy
If the main feature of spas is the
use of medicinal mineral water
flowing from natural springs,
another kind of establishment seeks
regeneration and health through the
application of new techniques that
are based on the use of sea water.
Talasotherapy (Talasa: the sea),
uses similar techniques to spas, but
the single or main element is sea
water and its derivatives: algae,
salts, sea mud etc. This new offer
in health and well-being tourism
came about as a result of the strict
legislation governing spas. There
are no medicinal mineral springs
left to exploit, so these establishments rely on sea water to apply
cures and renewal techniques.
These establishments are not bound
by the administrative and medical
controls governing spas. In the
short time they have existed, how-

Every demand creates a supply.
And this is how centres offering
SPA services have come to flourish. This abbreviation describes a

accommodation that offers a wide

relaxation. Such is the boom in this

Calvià Town Council has allocated a sum of 360,000 euros
to this year’s edition, a considerably higher amount than
previous years, despite the
fact that occupancy figures are
not expected to be greater than
they were last year. As well
as the edition’s own programme of activities, there
will also be cultural contributions with initiatives by the
Town Council’s Department of
Culture equivalent to 420,000
euros. At the same time, it is
also envisaged that the
Balearic Government’s
Department of Tourism will

investing 360,000 euros in it.
Delegated by the different
associations that take part in
the initiative, the PalmanovaMagaluf Hotel Association has
now been responsible for the
management of five editions of
this programme of activities,
beginning in November and ending in March: a programme
that also includes the participation of the Balearic
Government, IBATUR and
Foment de Turisme de
Mallorca.
During these ten years, over
750,000 people have taken
part in the programme, with an

terms of hotel figures, a total
of 51 hotels will open their

hotel beds. It is anticipated
that fewer hotels and beds will
be available than last year.
Nevertheless, despite this situation, there has been equal
unity among the area’s hotel
associations and local institu-

By hotel areas, PalmanovaMagaluf plans to offer a total

Portals Nous will have two
