Abstract

Seasonality is an important factor for tourism, having a major impact on tourism activities during certain periods of the year. This is determined by climatic conditions, school holidays or holidays, and is the period when most people are willing to travel. Seasonal tourism is characterized by intense tourist activity, with massive concentrations of tourists at specific times and in specific areas. However, seasonal tourism was significantly affected during the COVID-19 pandemic period (2019- 2021) when there was a worldwide tourism freeze through the imposition of movement and travel restrictions. The measures taken during the pandemic had a huge impact on all tourist destinations giving rise to unprecedented situations.
