Abstract

Turizam kao temelj razvoja gospodarstva danas je prisutan u svakom kutku zemlje, osobito na obalama i otocima, tome iznimka nije ni otok Rab. Razvojem i inovacijama motoriziranih prijevoznih sredstava skraćuje se vrijeme putovanja i udaljenosti turističkih destinacija, čime turistička putovanja sve više dobivaju na značaju. Porastom turističkih kretanja i masovnosti putnika javljaju se sve veće potrebe za izvorima pitke vode. U takvim uvjetima mjesta i prostori na obali i otocima osobito bivaju pogođeni, zbog karakterističnog reljefa i nedovoljnih vlastitih količina pitke vode kojima bi opskrbili sveukupno stanovništvo, kako domaće tako i one koji ih turistički posjećuju. Analizom je utvrđeno kako je izražena velika sezonalnost u potrošnji vode, pri vršnim opterećenjima ljeti potrošnja iznosi gotovo polovicu ukupne potrošnje u godini što je jasan pokazatelj velikog utjecaja turizma na crpljenje prirodnih resursa. Takvi uvjeti zahtijevaju posebnu pažnju i akcije kako bi se na dobrobit ljudi i sveukupnog okoliša osiguralo održivo iskorištavanje prostora.

Abstract (english)

Tourism as the foundation of economic development is present in every corner on earth, especially on the coasts and islands, with no exception of the island of Rab. Developing and innovating motorized means of transport shortens travel time and distances of tourist destinations, making tourism travel more and more important. The growing demand for water sources is growing due to the growth of tourist movements and mass travelers. In such conditions, places and areas on the coast and island are particularly affected because of its characteristic terrain and insufficient own water resources to supply the total population, both locally and tourists. The analysis found that the high sesonality of water consumption is expressed, with peak loads in summer consumption of almost half of the total consumption during the year, which is clear indicator of grat impact of tourism on the burden of natural resources. Such conditions require special attention and ensure the sustainable exploitation of space for the benefit of people and the overall enviroment.
