Proposal for a tourist information system for the rural beaches of the canton Manta-Ecuador
Abstract
The present work has the objective of proposing a Tourist Information System that contributes to the improvement of the offer of Manta’s rural beaches. The research has a quantitative approach. To achieve the goal, five stages were developed, each one with its activities, techniques and tools. The first stage is based on a diagnosis, in the second stage a characterization and analysis of demand, supply and facilities was carried out, through a survey and field work. As a third stage, the design of the tourist information system was carried out; in the fourth stage, the execution or development of the system is proposed. In the last stage, control and feedback is proposed, that is, knowing how many people visit the web and the information shared from part to part. The research is concluded by stating that the proposal will contribute to improving the supply of rural beaches of Manta, provided that the support of all the actors in the local tourist scene is guaranteed.
