Abstract

La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo principal identificar los factores considerados claves en la competitividad de un destino turístico, llevada a cabo en el municipio de San Carlos, Antioquia, Colombia. Mediante un análisis factorial exploratorio y confirmatorio, los resultados muestran que esta región será más competitiva en materia de turismo, si desarrolla los recursos inherentes, los recursos creados, y los factores de apoyo, y si promueve una mejor gestión del destino. Estos resultados tienen implicaciones importantes para el diseño de la política pública turística, tanto en la región como en otras afines.
