Abstract

Geopark Viški arhipelag najmlađi je hrvatski geopark. Uključivanjem Geoparka u turističku ponudu otoka Visa, pokušava se pružiti što bogatiji turistički sadržaj kako bi se smanjila orijentiranost samo na kupališni turizam. Razvija se novi oblik selektivnog turizma,
geoturizam, u kojem se kroz turističko-rekreacijski i znanstveni aspekt ciljano posjećuju lokaliteti od iznimnog geološkog i geomorfološkog značaja. Budući da je proglašenje geoparka bitno za prosperitet područja, raznim edukacijama i programima se pokušava informirati lokalno stanovništvo o načinima kojima bi oni mogli pridonijeti boljem razvijanju i upravljanju geoparkom. Cilj ovog rada je istražiti geološke i geomorfološke značajke Geoparka Viški arhipelag, bogatstvo resursa kojim obiluje te zašto je on danas iznimno važan i atraktivan u turističkoj ponudi otoka Visa. Također se i komparativnom analizom sa Geoparkom Cabo de Gata Níjar pokušavaju uvidjeti mogućnosti za napredak u održivijem upravljanju geoparkom.

Abstract (english)

Vis Archipelago Geopark is Croatia’s youngest geopark. By including the Geopark in the tourist offer of the island of Vis, an attempt is made to reduce the island’s orientation towards sun, sea, and sand tourism. Thus, a new form of selective tourism, geotourism, is being developed. Sites of exceptional geological and geomorphological significance are being targeted through recreational and scientific activities. Since the proclamation of a geopark largely depends on the population, it is important for the prosperity of the area, with various educational programs which try to inform local people about the ways in which they could contribute to better development and management of the geopark. The aim of this paper is to research the geological and geomorphological of the Vis Archipelago Geopark, its abundance of resources, and its role in the tourist offer of the island features of Vis. Furthermore, a comparative analysis with the Cabo de Gata Níjar Geopark seeks opportunities for progress in sustainable geopark management.
