Introduction

Today many tourist destinations are becoming modalities "new" tourism in which unconventional activities are receiving much welcomed by tourist demand, currently requires an active direct involvement in the implementation of tourism activities. Within this change , are developing activities such as whale watching, which today generates millionaires worldwide income and prosperity for the towns or destinations that develop responsibly, as it promotes the creation of jobs and helps strengthen appreciation for the importance of marine conservation. At the same time, provides opportunities for the promotion of research .

Economic Tourists probably pay less distant companies in capital cities but can enjoy a place to spend very little time there - particularly when traveling in vehicles where even carry their food.
