My 10 Point Plan to Develop Tourism In Jamaica.

In Jamaica they are at their peak of mass tourism, this involves large numbers of people travelling to Jamaica. There are a lot of pull factors and because of mass tourism a lot of residents rely on tourists buying products. There can be a lot of positive aspects due to mass tourism but can create negative impacts too, so here is a 10 point development tourism plan in Jamaica.

Make tourists pay an extra tax when they enter Jamaica - So the extra money tax can go to treating water pollution.

Make hotels which do not go all inclusive- To support local residents into selling their own products in shops, supporting the local community.

Build hotels only having a certain amount of space/height – To stop them for being an eyesore for possible tourists.

Fishing cards- So that only certain people can fish and in certain areas too, reducing over fishing.

Advertise sporting tourism-  Representing Jamaican athletes and promoting them.

Promote local transport- To decrease congestion and support local transport.

Rise payments for entering Jamaica- To give extra payments to lower costs of local housing for residents.

Promote local businesses and travel in hotels- This will help businesses gain money from tourists and support transport too.

Buy products from local businesses to sell in airports- Helping locals to raise profits.

Only allow a certain amount of hotels to be built in different areas- This reduces eye sores and doesn’t ruin the surroundings so much that it pushes tourists away.

Dawlish Warren- How is Dawlish Warren formed?

Dawlish Warren was formed originally by a spit. A spit was formed by  Long shore drift , where swash and backwash moves the sand along the beach, swash is where the force of the waves make the sand travel up the beach and backwash is where the waves return out to sea dragging sand with it. Also the prevailing winds usually from the south west of England, moving the sand and shingle along the beach, making the beach longer,  calmer water then gets trapped behind the beach and in front of the headland. The river moves mud and little rocks down the river which gets trapped behind the beach. Marsh land then develops behind the beach where the river used to be. The spit starts to progress and starts to curve making a hook shape, this is due to the marsh behind which can flow anywhere and also wind occurs from the south east of England too making a hook shape spit. The force of the current doesn’t let the beach extend to the other side of the land, leaving a curved spit. The land behind Dawlish Warren is the marsh land, helping to keep the spit in place and making it bigger.
