Due to low- cost airlines, many more people can travel abroad than ever before. do the advantages that tourists bring to the countries they visit outweigh the disadvantages?

In the past, travel abroad was a difficult thing, only certainty
people
did
this
journey. Nowadays, more and more
people
are travelling overseas
due to
the affordability of airlines. Despite the fact that the presence of
tourists
can contribute to a detrimental effect on local
tourism
, I believe that many
visitors
from other
countries
can promote better economic sectors. Those who focus on the drawbacks of
tourism
tend to worry about the damage of numerous
tourist
destinations created by
visitors
.
For example
, coral reefs in many
countries
,
such
as Australia and Vietnam, are often damaged by
tourists
during their scuba diving or snorkelling.
This
will impact the life of many magnificent creatures under the sea which rely on the growth of coral reefs.
Furthermore
, ancient historical treasures
such
as the stupa in Borobudur temple, are being worn down by
tourists
.
Hence
, the more
visitors
visit
tourist
destinations, the more destruction will be gained by the
countries
.
However
, I would argue that there are powerful benefits to a country having a strong
tourism
industry and that not only do these benefits outweigh the disadvantages but
also
, the aforementioned problems are relatively easy to solve.
Firstly
tourists
provide jobs for local
people
. As millions of
visitors
flood into
tourist
attractions, locals are employed in droves by restaurants, hotels and retail services, and transport and security companies. Opportunities are
also
created for locals to set up their own small businesses.
Moreover
, locals can be employed as tour guides to manage and educate the
tourists
to prevent them from causing damage. The more
tourists
that come, the more jobs that can be created.
Secondly
,
tourism
can have a huge impact on a country’s economy in general.
Tourists
spend a lot of money on travel, accommodation, food, entertainment and so on. Many
countries
in
this
world rely on
tourism
to boost their economies in
this
manner. In conclusion,
while
it is indisputable that the existence of
tourists
can cause a lot of damage in many local
tourist
destinations, I believe that because of creates jobs for local
people
and boosts the country’s economy, the advantages of
tourism
outweigh the disadvantages.
