Abstract

Este trabalho analisa a evolução da estrutura econó- mica da região do Algarve e o posicionamento alcançado pela atividade turística na região entre 1995 e 2003 com o objetivo de avaliar o grau de especialização da região no turismo. A metodologia adotada utiliza instrumentos de análise regional, em particular os indicadores de lo- calização e de especialização aos níveis interregional e intrarregional. Os resultados sugerem que o Algarve é a segunda região mais especializada do país, juntamente com a Madeira e depois da região dos Açores. Na base deste fenómeno estão os setores da hotelaria e restau- ração, os quais se encontram diretamente associados à atividade turística, e outros setores como as pescas, o comércio, os transportes, as comunicações e outros ser- viços, indiretamente ligados à atividade turística. Adicio- nalmente, os focos de concentração localizam-se na orla costeira, com particular incidência nos concelhos de Al- bufeira, Vila do Bispo e Portimão.
