Description:
The Northern Adriatic Sea has been the theatre of trades and migrations since the prehistoric age. The cultural and natural bonds are largely acknowledged nowadays even if they remain under perceived by the general public and mass-tourists consuming tourism resources at a frantic pace.
In fact, while tourism has the potential to enhance and preserve the tangible and intangible cultural heritage on which it relies, if it is not managed and controlled, it can also degrade and irreversibly damage this valuable resource. On the contrary, the cultural valorization of historic heritages is key for creating an all-year-long sustainable tourism product.
