- The Butler model
- About
- Butler developed a model which shows how any tourist destination may grow.
- 1) Exploration
- Small numbers of visitors are attracted to a particular feature. e.g. Landscape, beaches or culture.
- 2) Involvement
- The local population sees the opportunity to develop and start to provide services such as accommodation and transport for tourists.
- 3) Development
- Large companies build hotels and leisure complexes and the number of tourists rise dramatically. Opportunities for locals increase which brings advantages and disadvantages.
- 4) Consolidation
- Tourism is now a major part of the economy, number of visitors are steady and employment is secure.
- Some hotels and facilities are becoming second rate and type of visitors attracted are down market and rowdiness may become a problem.
- 5) Stagnation
- The resort becomes unfashionable and visitor numbers begin to decline,
- 6) decline or rejuvenation
- decline - visitors prefer other resorts and day trippers/ weekenders become the main source as income and tourism.
- Rejuvenation - attempts are made to modernise the resort and attract new and different tourists by introducing new and varied activities.
