Abstract

The local fishermen from the Atacama Region, located in northern Chile, understand that tourism is a great possibility for them to develop new economic activities different from fishing. Local people proposed different and possible new business activities in the area, where different tourist variables were evaluated. The proposal is based on a study carried out by authorities from the Atacama Region about the development of the coast of the area, local fishing and tourism altogether. This document is a summary of the study above.
