Eco Guide
Our goal as eco-tourists should be to leave only footprints in
the sand. To make sure we minimize our impact on the area we are
visiting. With that in mind, here are a few ideas.
-
Learn as much as possible about an area before visiting.
-
Inform yourself of the customs of the area so that you can
be respectful by following them.
-
Stay on designated trails while hiking to minimize damage
to fragile ecosystems.
-
When hiking, pack out your own trash. Maybe even pack out
trash that you see.
-
Leave wild animals in peace by keeping your distance. They
are not used to the presence of humans and we are stressful
to them. A good way to do this is to use binoculars so that
you don't get too close and to stay on designated paths.
-
Shop from locally owned businesses to insure maximum benefit
from your tourist dollars to the local economy.
