Eco-Tourism

Ecotourism is:
- a form of tourism that appeals to ecologically and socially conscious individuals, evaluating environmental and cultural factors, focusing on personal growth and learning new ways to live on the planet;
- a form of tourism with minimal impact on the environment;
- the conservation of biological diversity and cultural diversity through ecosystem protection;
- the creation of economic opportunities for the local communities;
- the building of environmental and cultural awareness and respect;
- an action that is economically viable to all.
We must all be conscious that our planet is under a serious threat, and that the green lifestyle is a reality that can't be avoided, and we hope it won't be too late.
Make a contribution by choosing destinations where sustainable development is promoted:
- Choose places that are environmentally friendly, and ask about their environmental pratices;
- Act in order to minimize the impact of your stay in the environment;
In Portugal we have some spaces that are eco-friendly:
- Zmar is a eco camping resort that use renewable energies and protect natural resources. In Zmar they recycle, they use solar energy and cleaning products that are biodegradable.
