- Profile of the Surf Tourist in Peniche in the Low SeasonPublication . Almeida, Bruno Feijó; Chagas, Laura; Pires, Ana; Pais, SóniaIn recent years, tourism has boosted local economic development, being strategic for the sustainability and dynamism of communities. This quantitative study analyzes the profile of surf tourists in Peniche in the low season, based on 202 questionnaires applied in five places frequented by surfers. The results show that most tourists are in the age groups of 25 to 30 years and 31 to 40 years, evidencing a young adult audience financially autonomous and prone to travel to surf. Most are male, have higher education and consider themselves to have a level of expertise in initial or intermediate surfing. As for nationality, tourists from Portugal stand out, followed by Germany, Greece, Italy and the United Kingdom and other mostly European countries, which reveals international diversity. The data obtained come from the preliminary phase of a study that also aims to understand the perception of tourists about the city's cultural offer.
