Abstract

This paper analyses the interface between the global tourism in Jericoacoara and the development of the local tourism in Tatajuba Beach, in the county of Camocim, on the west coast of Ceará. As part of the touristic complex of Jericoacoara, this community has attracted real estate speculation, and special interest from the tourism agencies. This has caused conflicts among its residents and split-ups within the community. However, these conflicts also raised the residents awareness about the possibility of developing its local tourism as opposed to the global tourism of large agencies.
