Abstract:
|
Seasonality in tourism consists of the disequilibrium in tourist numbers over the course
of the year and has become one of the main problems for the sustainability and growth
of the sector. The aim of this study, given the sparse quantitative literature on the
subject, is to explore the relevance, changes over time, and explanatory factors of
seasonality across a wide range of Spain’s tourist destinations (124) for the period
2006–2012. The econometrical analysis is carried out based on a fixed effects panel
data model that maximizes estimation efficiency. We think that some implications can
be derived in terms of tourist policy.
Keywords: Tourist seasonality; Tourist destinations in Spain; Measurement. |
