    This book with two key parts discusses threats and consequences of climate predictions on coastal tourism destinations. Chapters 1 to 7 explore the theoretical and contextual frameworks of climate change processes and their general relationship with coastal tourism destinations. Such concepts for example evaluate the relationship and juxtaposition between climate change and tourism and explore emerging issues relating to the media, the law and risk assessments. The following chapters 8 to 17 are more applied and draw upon a range of international case studies from leading academics, professionals and practitioners. These case studies illustrate contemporary issues in the development of coastal tourism destinations; perceived impacts of climate change; and review suggested or actioned ameliorative measures and evaluations of these. The case studies based on specific coastal tourism typologies, including established beach resorts, ecotourism destinations, island destinations and adventure/alternative coastal destinations, are drawn from key regions of the world including the Americas, Europe, Australasia and Asia.
