Summary
Ecotourism in Ilha Grande, Brazil, remains largely underdeveloped despite its potential for sustainable tourism. A SWOT analysis of the region reveals significant barriers—such as accessibility challenges and insufficient infrastructure—that hinder its transition from conventional tourism to ecotourism. The study highlights a disconnect between current practices and sustainable ideals, emphasizing the need for coordinated strategies among stakeholders to foster genuine ecotourism development. This research underscores the urgency of policy alignment and collaborative efforts to harness Ilha Grande’s biodiversity while ensuring responsible tourism growth.
