Abstract:
Analysis of the tourism potential of Vama commune, Suceava County aims to identify the resources that can support
and influence the development of tourism activities in the area. Tourism resources identified in the reporting area are:
natural resources, anthropical resources, capital resources and human resources. The evaluation was performed through
specific and synthetic indicators, represented by: index of attractiveness of the area, number of units, number of beds,
employment in tourism. The analysis of these indicators confirm that Vama commune is an area with high tourism
potential. Given these factors, it can be said that Vama is an outstanding touristic destination, offering premises to spend
some unforgettable holidays in nature. However, in relation to the real potential of the area, the exploitation of tourism
resources is still at a low level, this being demonstrated by the number of tourists and by the accommodation capacity of
the area. Capitalization of tourism potential must be accomplished by investing in accommodation and catering
infrastructure, by applying innovative strategies with real impact on the market.
