Coastal tourism is evolving, with a growing focus on innovation and sustainability. As awareness of environmental impact increases, travellers are looking for experiences that respect nature and local culture. In this episode, we explore EU-supported projects offering new approaches to seaside tourism — like TWINNEDbySTARS, which promotes maritime ecotourism in Europe’s outermost regions, and ecoRoute, which develops smart, sustainable ways to explore underwater heritage and marine biodiversity.
OCEAN is a Euronews magazine in collaboration with the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (MARE). It features monthly 8-minute videos, where we discover fascinating projects and developments related to the ocean and coastal communities.
Broadcast since 2019, OCEAN features episodes on marine protected areas, small-scale fisheries, ocean energy, aquaculture, IUU fishing, sustainable fisheries and much more. Missed one? Check them out on the Euronews website! You will also find some nice extras about these topics.
