Abstract

Tourism is one of the most important "industries" in the world, both in terms of its contribution to GDP and also job creation. In many areas and countries of the world, seaside tourism has been developing rapidly in the last decades and, for many countries, it represents a very important economic activity. The coastal areas are facing more or less severe effects of the coastal erosion. Significant beach areas disappear annually, under the influence of natural and anthropogenic factors. Therefore, actions to restore, protect and expand the beaches are needed. In Romania, there is an ongoing development on widening the beaches, but, although those works are urgently needed, there are many tourist dissatisfactions regarding the exaggerated width of the newly extended beaches, the quality of the sand, etc. The purpose of this paper is to raise awareness on finding a correct balance between coastal erosion protection works and tourism demands.
