Abstract
A tourism destination generates economic repercussions for the local economy, in particular when it represents an ‘E-attraction' for tourists. The objective of this paper is to present the various impacts of a destination when it is considered as an ‘E-attraction'. Along this line, the connection is established between various elements of tourism economics and this type of attraction. More precisely, it appears that positive effects follow from mass tourism; however, sustainable tourism for these destinations requires a special attention with regard to carrying capacities.
