| dc.description.abstract | In 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. | eng |

Este estudo, de matriz quantitativa, analisa o perfil dos turistas de surf em Peniche na época baixa, com base em 202 questionários aplicados em cinco locais frequentados por surfistas. Os resultados mostram que a maioria dos turistas se encontra nas faixas etárias de 25 a 30 anos e 31 a 40 anos, evidenciando um público jovem adulto, financeiramente autónomo e propenso a viajar para a prática do surf. A maioria é do género masculino, possui formação superior e considera ter um nível de perícia no surf inicial ou intermédio. Quanto à nacionalidade, destacam-se turistas de Portugal, seguido de Alemanha, Grécia, Itália e Reino Unido e outros países maioritariamente europeus, o que revela diversidade internacional. Os dados obtidos provêm da fase preliminar de um estudo que visa, ainda, compreender a perceção dos turistas sobre a oferta cultural da cidade. | por |
