Journal Title: Baltic Coastal Zone - Year 2005, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Tourism in the Baltic regions is considered an important factor of social and economic development of regions of touristic reception. Undisputable influence of tourism is observed in Baltic locations, especially those connected with providing backpack holiday offers and facilities. However, is it possible that tourism might generate development of local communities located some distance from the sea? This kind of assumption was included in the long-term plans of development of the city of Lebork. The present paper is an attempt to find an answer to the question if there are conditions to make tourism as important as other spheres determining social and economic growth of the city. In order to answer the question the author of the present paper carried out an empiric research into the issue of tourist traffic in Lebork, analyzing perception of the city by the tourists visiting the city. A detailed analysis showed specific concurrence of ideas concerning investment and touristic management plans prepared by the authorities with expectations of tourists. Therefore, one can expect that Lebork will become an important touristic center in the following years.
