Tourism is an element that provides important economic benefits<\/a> to countries. As a result, countries strive to attract more tourists, as they represent an indisputable source of profits. However, sometimes tourism is not as benevolent as it seems and can be responsible for certain problems. <\/p>

From the deterioration of ecosystems, the increase of waste and garbage, the increase of prices and even the loss of culture and traditions of local communities, betting on sustainable travel can be the way to minimize the impact on the destination. Therefore, sustainable travel can be the way to minimize the impact on the destination. Do you dare to visit Cape Verde in a responsible way? <\/p>

Nowadays, it is easy to find a wonderful but overcrowded tourist destination. Just take a look at the big European capitals, which, especially in high season, are literally overflowing. But the hordes of tourists have also taken over those places that, just a few years ago, were a real paradise. Surely you know of a postcard beach that has lost its charm because of this issue. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It is possible that for the traveler, this issue translates only into discomfort or difficulty in taking a photograph without dozens of tourists covering the landscape. However, for the destination<\/a>, as mentioned above, the consequences can be disastrous. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fortunately, Cape Verde is not yet an overcrowded destination and, in fact, retains almost intact its authenticity. But if visitors are not made aware of the importance of sustainable travel, it is possible that in a few years the archipelago will lose much of its essence due to the irresponsibility of tourists. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sustainable and responsible travel is travel that aims to leave a positive impact on the place. The idea is, therefore, to contribute to the local economy, to the care and protection of the environment and to preserve the historical, cultural and artistic heritage. This, which sounds so romantic and utopian, really translates into something as simple as consuming local products, minimizing waste generation, making good use of water or respecting nature and animals, as well as the customs and traditions of the local culture. <\/p>

Sustainable and responsible travel, then, involves choosing tour operators that have these principles and that even collaborate with local projects. It is also synonymous with selecting accommodations linked to sustainable tourism, eco-type, and avoiding, as far as possible, resorts or luxury hotels that seem to be disconnected from the real life of the place. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sustainable travel is not at odds with comfort during the stay. Rather, they are related to a more conscious, solidary and, in short, more authentic tourism<\/a>. <\/p>

Helping to promote projects that improve the social and environmental context of the country. And also to make the experience in the archipelago perfect from beginning to end. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
