INFORMATION on TOURISM in 2009 Ministry of Tourism INTRODUCTION Ministry of Tourism INFORMATION ON TOURISM IN 2009 Ministry of Tourism INTRODUCTION The 2009 tourist season progressed in extraordinary circumstances, giv- en the economic crisis which largely influenced tourist trends not only in our country but in the region as well. The projections of the 2009 Economic Policy are achieved. Finan- cial and physical indicators are at the level of the last year’s indicators, and surveys show a high level of satisfaction of tourists. Having in mind objective conditions, the achieved results can be considered a large suc- cess. Activities focused on preparing the season Ministry of Tourism Within the preparations for this year’s tourist season, considerable funds were in- vested in improving communal and road infrastructures. During the season, the work of communal services and power supply sys- tem were at a satisfactory level, and when speaking about water-supply, a number of activities were undertaken to reduce losses of the existing network by replacing worn-out pipes, and finding new springs in order to provide a longer-term solution to the problem. It is expected that majority of works will be completed next season, so municipality networks will be ready for the completion of the Project Regional Water-supply System. ● road infrastructure - more than 27 million € invested ● airport infrastructure – more than 6 million € invested ● transmission and distribution network improved– more than 4 million € invested ● infrastructure on border crossings improved and the time tourists spend on border crossings reduced. Activities focused on preparing the season Towards the crisis tourist year, the Government of Montenegro, municipalities, National Tourist Organization and tourist economy implemented a set of measures: ● Reduced taxes on income of private entities from 15% to 12% ● Subsidies to small and medium size enterprises for electricity 10% ● Additional subsidies to distributive consumers of 5% for the period from 1st April to 30th September ● Duties affecting the prices of fuel removed ● Fees for using construction land removed ● Taxes and contributions on salaries reduced ● NTO implemented intensive campaigns on local, regional and global markets ● Tourism economy reduced prices by up to 30% and offered a number of benefits to tourists ● Banking sector has not responded to the need for short-term crediting of the needs of tourist economy Activities focused on preparing the season Ministry of Tourism ● Monthly sessions of the Coordination Body were held, and it was chaired by the President of the Government; members of the Coordination Body are Government representatives, managers of public enterprises and institutions, Mayors of tourist municipalities and representatives of private sector, ● Three operational teams are established by the Coordination Body and representa- tives of private and public sectors participated in its work, ● A uniform Communication Strategy is defined with clear and harmonized messages to all emissive markets, ● The result is 88% of implemented activities which are defined by the Action Plan that was adopted by the Government in October 2008. Tourist turnover – quantitative and qualitative effects ● During the first ten months of 2009, Montenegro was visited by 1.178.650 tourists, which makes an increase of 2,25%, with 7.439.604 overnights, or 2,43% less than in the same period of 2008. ● Considered by countries, the most overnights were realized by tourists from Serbia – 31%. A considerable share in tourist turnover was realized by tourists from the EU countries this year as well – 21%. Having in mind the extraordinary conditions of the season, it was to be ex- pected that a significant number of overnights would be realized by the tourists from former YU region – 17%. ● When speaking about qualitative effects of the summer tourist season, the data obtained from the Central Bank of Montenegro confirm that this season was satisfactory from financial aspect as well. ● The revenues generated in the first ten months amount to almost 490 million €, which is almost at the same level as in the same period last year. ● According to projections, it is expected that Montenegro will be visited by around 1,2 mil- lion tourists by the end of 2009 (by around 2% more than in 2008), and realize around 7,6 mil. overnights (2,5% less than last year).

    SURVEY ON LOW CARBON TOURISM IN MONTENEGRO FINAL REPORT Report prepared by: E3 Consulting Energy-Ecology-Economy 2015. Survey on Low Carbon Tourism in Montenegro is conducted in July 2015 in cooperation with the Centre for sustainable development and E3 Consulting Podgorica. 2 SURVEY ON LOW CARBON TOURISM IN MONTENEGRO, 2015.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Survey on low-carbon tourism in Montenegro was conducted in 6 coastal municipalities (Bar, Budva, Herceg Novi, Kotor, Tivat, Ulcinj) and Old Royal Capital Cetinje and it included three target groups: 1) 1,000 visiting tourists; 2) 100 travel and tourism sector representatives; and 3) relevant central & local authorities in the area of tourism and environmental protection. Tourists, travel and tourism sector representatives and relevant central & local authorities in the area of tourism and environmental protection in general showed quite poor awareness level on low carbon growth and knowledge on low carbon services and products throughout the travel and tourism supply chain. Still, general perception is that Montenegro is pure and nature-friendly tourism destination. There were no concretely stated low carbon travel and tourism products or services offered in Montenegro, except for Marina Porto Montenegro with ecological standards for yachts.

  • Coastal Tourism in Montenegro – Economic Dynamics, Spatial Developments and Future Perspectives
    HRVATSKI GEOGRAFSKI GLASNIK 73/1, 165 – 180 (2011.) UDK 379.8:911.3](497.16) Preliminary communication 911.3:33](497.16) Prethodno priopćenje Coastal Tourism in Montenegro – Economic Dynamics, Spatial Developments and Future Perspectives Matthias Bickert, Daniel Göler, Holger Lehmeier Montenegro seeks its future perspectives in tourism. And there are good reasons for that: The country was considered to be the fastest growing tourism market worldwide in 2007. Notwithstanding a slight decrease during the last years, tourism is still seen as a crucial factor for future economic development. This seems to be a viable option if we consider Montenegro’s natural potential, its beneficial position on the Adriatic coastline and the experience in tourism gained in the many years since the 1970s. These dynamic developments were motivation enough to explore tourism in Montene- gro in a research project with strong empirical evidence, organised as co-operation between Universities from Germany, Albania, Montenegro and Serbia. Our empirical approach included semi-structured, flexible interviews with different types of stakeholders. Since tourism in Montenegro is still almost entirely limited to the coast, we chose three coastal hot-spots in tourism, namely Kotor, Budva and Ulcinj. Our results show that the current development in tourism can surely be considered as progressive and dynamic. But it is also strongly affected by multiple polarisations and divergent trends. There is a need for infrastructural upgrades in the mass tourism sector, which is for the most part a low budget market with very difficult future perspectives. At the same time, there is a small but growing number of very exclusive offers, often seen as the vanguard of Montenegro’s future as an upper class tourists’ destination.
