Abstract

Este documento presenta la valoración económica que realizan los turistas que visitan las playas de la ciudad de Santa Marta, con base cálculos de modelos econométricos, aplicando el método de costo de viaje; el cual es empleado para estimar valores de uso económicos de ecosistemas. La investigación revela que el costo promedio diario en las bahías es de $42.969,67. Además se encontró que el 47% de los turistas consideran que se debe erradicar de la bahía el vertimiento de aguas lluvias, factor que redunda en una reducción del 8,4% de las visitas a dicha playa. El tiempo de permanencia en las playas resultó altamente significativo para el número de visitas. Los ingresos de los visitantes no son independientes del nivel de educación, sin embargo, no resultó significativo el efecto sustitución.
