Málaga aims for sustainability

Short Description

Spain’s Costa del Sol, a major global tourist hub, faces significant sustainability challenges despite growing awareness. While few hotels were built with resource conservation in mind, experts like José Damián Ruiz Sinoga argue that current tourist numbers in places like Málaga exceed their sustainable capacity, necessitating a shift from traditional sun-and-beach tourism. Local politicians aim to attract “quality tourists” interested in culture and nature, prioritizing visitor experience and resident well-being over sheer volume.
