The rise of mass tourism to island destinations presents a critical challenge in balancing economic benefits with environmental sustainability and cultural preservation. As visitor numbers grow, these fragile ecosystems face threats such as overdevelopment, resource depletion, and loss of indigenous traditions. Understanding how communities navigate these pressures is essential for fostering responsible tourism practices that protect both natural landscapes and cultural heritage. Navigating Mass Tourism to Island Destinations: Preservation and Cultural Heritage Challenges offers a nuanced perspective on balancing growth with preservation in some of the world's most enchanting island settings. Through compelling case studies, interviews with locals, and expert analysis, readers gain insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by islands in the age of global travel. Covering topics such as social media influence, travel agencies, and commercialization, this book is an excellent resource for policymakers, tourism professionals, travelers, sustainability advocates, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
