Click here to know more Experiencing Natural Wonders with Ecotourism By Sarah Manners Ecotourism Coined by Héctor Ceballos-Lascuràin in 1983 the term Ecotourism was used to describe nature centric travel to relatively undisturbed areas with an emphasis on education. Today ecotourism consists of cultural tourism, nature tourism, leisure tourism and a good dose of adventure. Sound ecotourism involves travel to natural destinations, minimizes impact, builds environmental awareness, provides direct financial benefits for conservation, provides financial benefits and empowerment for local people, respects local culture, and supports human rights and not exploitation. It is an enlightening, participatory travel experience to environments, both natural and cultural which produces viable economic opportunities for the tourism industry and host communities, and makes the use of these resources through conservation beneficial to all tourism role players. Global Ecotourism According to the World Tourism Organisation Ecotourism is the fastest growing market within the ever expanding global tourism industry. Eco-travel is a serious player within the global tourism market and is fast becoming the preferred option in vacationing. We are a society trademarked by a heightened environmental consciousness not known in past eras. This combined with easy accessibility to exotic locations is what has drawn so many to eco-travel. Countries have begun to promote their natural resources, unique locals and tourism facilities in a bid to capture the interest of intrepid eco-travellers. Businesses are constructing camps and lodges and trails and tours are being designed to facilitate the wants and needs of the eco-tourists. Ecotourism in Africa Africa is synonymous with the concept of ecotourism, its multitude of game parks and reserves conserve some of the world’s most magnificent creatures. The bird life throughout the continent is remarkable, natural wonders are scattered throughout the continent and the cultures and traditions of past eras mystically intertwine with modern day. Each country on this diverse continent offers its own unique appeal to eco-travellers and no eco-traveller would be complete without a trip to Africa. A Jewel at the Tip of Africa When the path of tourism began to diverge to ecotourism; nature, heritage and recreational destinations became more important than before and South Africa is a haven for these three cornerstones of eco-tourism. Lying at the very tip of Africa, South Africa is home to some of the most The Beginner's Guide To Natural Living A book devoted to teaching how to live the natural lifestyle.

It is near impossible to separate SA from a nature experience and the strongest motivations for overseas travellers seem to be the scenic beauty and rich wildlife. SA Ecotourism Highlights There are a never ending abundance of activities to keep eco-travellers busy on their journey through South Africa. One of the biggest draw cards are the impressive wildlife reserves scattered throughout the country. The Kruger National Park, by far South Africa’s most internationally acclaimed, was established in 1898 to protect South African wildlife and is today an unrivalled leader in biodiversity and environmental management. Each park and reserve offers its visitors a unique experience. Watching a herd of elephants cooling off at a waterhole or a lioness and her cubs playfully taunting one another are truly some of the most amazing sights anyone can behold. The parks are extremely large which allows the wildlife to roam free and exist as they were created to without borders or unnatural threats. A safari drive is one of the best ways to experience nature up close and personal and it is highly recommended for any one interested in eco-travel. It is not only the impressive wildlife on the ground that attracts visitors to South Africa; the marine life is spectacularly diverse. From Southern-Right Whale watching in Hermanus and watching schools of dolphins gliding through the waters on a boat trip to exploring the ecosystems in the rock pools along the coastline and scuba diving amongst various marine creatures. South African is home to some of the most dramatic mountains and mountain ranges. Table Mountain, the Magaliesberg and the Drakensburg Mountain range offer amazing flora and fauna as well as some of the world’s best hiking trails and breathtaking vistas. The various botanical gardens that are scattered throughout the country are home to hundreds of indigenous plants and the countries numerous forest regions are much celebrated by eco-enthusiasts. The traditional villages are a highlight amongst eco-travellers to South Africa who have the opportunity to experience what life was like in years gone by. Apart from partaking in traditional customs such as meals and games visitors gain an insight as to how the tribes lived off and existed in harmony with nature. Africa is a treasure trove of natural wonders and the jewel at the tip, South Africa, is a slice of paradise for anyone interested in ecotourism.

Page 2 Presented by Daniel Toriola Ecotourism Presents Old World In A New Light By Gentle Island Ecotourism or ecological tourism is a trend towards preservation that has in recent years taken on global proportions. It's a relatively recent form of tourism typified by being both socially and ecologically conscious, according to Wikipedia. Focusing on many factors including regional plant and wildlife, and native culture, ecotourism is a growing trend. This new form of travel seeks to protect, inform and educate as much as it does to profile or display. For example: in most countries, it is illegal to remove "found" treasures of ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Greece or the Roman Empire. In other instances, the protection of underwater habitats is promoted so that coral is not removed (or in some cases, not even stepped upon). For Prince Edward Island, ecotourism seeks to preserve a natural heritage and a legacy that has endured for tens of thousands of years. With multicolored beaches of white, champagne, pink and red sand, island dunes are home and host to a fragile ecosystem resplendent with plant and animal life. Preservation of dunes means preservation of a rich, natural heritage. For seaside wildlife so abundantly alive on the island, preservation extends to bird colonies and to protecting the endangered Piping Plover. A North American shorebird, the Piping Plover's light, sandy colored feathers blend into context with sandy beaches and shorelines, its primary habitat. Ecotourism on Prince Edward Island extends to preservation of its heritage as with Lennox Island, home to a community of Mi'Kmaq people, the original inhabitants of the island. Featuring a community museum and the opportunity to sample traditional native food Lennox Island is an excellent place to see ecotourism in action. Beyond the sites and sounds of the ocean, the seafood and the golf, Prince Edward Island is steeped in rich heritage. This gentle island awaits your discovery and it deserves the respect and preservation that ecotourism initiatives provide. For Prince Edward Island, ecotourism seeks to preserve a natural heritage and a legacy that has endured for tens of thousands of years.  Prince Edward Island is surrounded by miles of sandy beaches and red sandstone cliffs and is sized just right for touring. http://www.gov.pe.ca/visitorsguide/inde 500 Years Of Natural Health Secrets Classic natural health eBooks help people lose weight, gain energy, reduce pain, improve memory, detox, etc. Page 3 Presented by Daniel Toriola Related eBooks: Ecotourism Presents Old World In A New Light Costa Rica Eco Travel An Ecotourism Resort in Port Antonio Jamaica Stay in the embrace of nature at Ratanakiri, Cambodia Mother Earth Hosts Our Travels Get more Free PDF eBooks at FreePDFeBooks.com Related Products: Natural Pain Management Understanding Incontinence Hints for lovers Create Your Own Scrapbook at minimum cost.
