The growing trend toward sustainable travel is expected to increase overall ecotourism sales at a CAGR of 15% by 2033 – Market Research Blog

By 2023, the global ecotourism market is expected to reach $22.48 billion, with total revenue forecast to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15%. This trajectory is expected to increase the market value to $90.95 billion by 2033. The substantial growth is indicative of the increasing preference for sustainable travel options and environmentally friendly destinations. As consumers become more environmentally conscious, ecotourism is emerging as an important segment within the travel industry. This upward trend underlines a shift towards responsible tourism practices and the conservation of natural habitats and cultural heritage sites.

The growth of the global ecotourism market can be attributed to the rising popularity of outdoor leisure activities, solo travel and immersion travel in response to rising urbanization and incomes. In addition, the best hotel chains are investing in social media marketing and using new approaches to build eco-lodges and camps, design itineraries and organize excursions.

• Greater awareness of sustainable practices: Improved access to information and environmental campaigns inform travelers about the impact of their choices.
• The rise of eco-accommodations: Tourists are increasingly looking for accommodations that are built with sustainability in mind. Eco-accommodation offers a wide range of options, from eco-resorts and hostels to hotels built with eco-friendly materials.
• Undertake ecotourism activities: Travelers can participate in exciting activities such as hiking, kayaking and bird watching, while minimizing their carbon footprint.

Ecotourism: a win-win situation for nature and communities

Ecotourism offers a twofold benefit:

• Conservation of natural environments: By supporting responsible travel practices, ecotourism helps protect fragile ecosystems and wildlife habitats.
• Empowering local communities: Ecotourism promotes sustainable development by creating jobs for local residents and promoting cultural conservation.

Sustainable cities Join the movement

Several cities, including Dubai, Doha and Manama, are transforming themselves into sustainable tourism destinations. These destinations strive for a balance between economic growth, environmental responsibility and cultural heritage.

They study the environmental and cultural impacts of ecotourism and work on projects that promote recycling, prioritize energy efficiency and reuse water to create jobs for locals. This causes the market to grow. Growth in the global ecotourism market is expected, in part because many national governments are actively promoting the sector through public education, training programs, data collection and analysis, and business partnerships.

Nepal, for example, which leads the world in unique sustainable tourism locations and saw a remarkable 24% increase in passenger numbers in 2020, reaching a total of 1,172,052 at the end of the year, is one of the countries that are responsible for the growth factors. Similarly, over two million tourists visited Kenya in 2019, an increase of 35.7% from the previous year. Destinations like Costa Rica, the Galapagos Islands and Panama are at the forefront of the sustainable tourism movement. Governments’ renewed focus on tourist safety has also contributed to an increase in the number of international visitors, which in turn has boosted the sustainable tourism industry.
