As Bali faces the growing challenges of overtourism, local leaders are drawing inspiration from other destinations like Bruges, Belgium, which has implemented new regulations to curb short-term rentals and hotel development. Bali is exploring similar strategies, including a new tourism tax and infrastructure projects, to promote sustainable tourism and protect its unique cultural and natural heritage.
The Balearic Islands are facing a decline in British tourists, prompting the tourism agency to launch new campaigns aimed at regaining their interest. Despite protests and regulatory changes, the islands are looking to diversify their tourism base, relying on strong growth from Germany and France.
The Saudi Red Sea Authority (SRSA) has implemented a new set of regulations for yachts operating in the Red Sea, marking a significant step towards developing a sustainable and well-regulated coastal tourism sector. The regulations emphasize environmental protection, safety, and accessibility, aiming to attract both local and international tourists and position Saudi Arabia as a premier destination for luxury and eco-tourism.
