SWOT Analýza Univerzita Hradec Králové Fakulta informatiky a managementu Katedra rekreologie a cestovního ruchu Předpoklady cestovního ruchu. Analýza potenciálu vulkanických oblastí světa pro cestovní ruch Bakalářská práce Autor: Michal Endrych Studijní obor: Management cestovního ruchu Vedoucí práce: Mgr. David Chaloupský, Ph.D. Hradec Králové Duben 2021 Prohlášení: Prohlašuji, že jsem bakalářskou práci zpracoval samostatně a s použitím uvedené literatury. vlastnoruční podpis V Hradci Králové dne 27.4.2021 Michal Endrych Poděkování: Rád bych poděkoval vedoucímu bakalářské práce Mgr. Davidu Chaloupskému, Ph.D. za metodické vedení práce, za jeho připomínky a cenné rady během konzultací a také za jeho ochotu konzultovat on-line v době složitého nouzového stavu. Anotace Bakalářská práce se zabývá zkoumáním zájezdů vybraných českých a zahraničních cestovních kanceláří, které směřují do vulkanických oblastí po celém světě. Vedle tohoto výzkumu se zabývá také vulkanismem, jeho příčinami a dopady na život na planetě Zemi. Práce je rozdělena na dvě na sebe navazující části. První část práce seznamuje čtenáře nejen se základními pojmy, které jsou důležité pro pochopení zkoumaných témat, ale především s vulkanismem a se všemi jeho souvislostmi, připomíná nejznámější zaznamenané sopečné katastrofy lidských dějin nebo představuje vulkány, které jsou schopné zmařit statisíce až miliony lidských životů. Druhá část práce se zaměřuje na další celosvětové vulkanické oblasti, zkoumá zájezdy českých i zahraničních cestovních kanceláří, které do nich směřují a navrhuje další potenciální místa, kam by jejich zájezdy mohly v budoucnosti směřovat. Pro lepší orientaci jsou zkoumané zájezdy a vulkány zmapovány a přehledně zpracovány nejen pomocí textu, ale také pomocí jednoduchých a stručných tabulek. Klíčová slova: zájezd, cestovní kancelář, vulkanická oblast, sopka, vrchol Annotation Title: Assumptions of tourism. Analysis of the potential of volcanic areas for tourism. The aim of the Bachelor thesis is to explore tours of selected Czech and foreign travel angencies that go to volcanic regions around the world. In addition to this research, this work discusses volcanim, its causes and impacts on life on planet Earth. The thesis is dividied into two successive parts. The first part of the thesis introduces the readers not only to basic concepts that are important for understanding the studied topics, but especially to volcanism and all its context, recalls the most famous recorded volcano disasters in human history or represents volcanoes that are capable of destroying hundreds of thousands to millions of human lives. The second part of the work focuses on another global volcanic areas, exploring tours of Czech and foreign travel agencies that go to them and suggesting other potential places where their tours could go in the future. For better orientation, the explored tours and volcanoes are mapped and clearly procesed not only with text, but also with using simple and concise tables.

    Image: Sentinel-1A captures Azore islands 9 October 2015 km from the coast ejected large quantities of lava and ash, forming an islet that later became connected to Faial island by an isthmus. Unique among the islands of Azores, São Jorge is uncharacteristically long and slender, and so susceptible to ocean erosion. The island is 55 km in length, with a mountain range forming its backbone. At 1053 m, Pico da Esperança is its highest peak. The island has an area of 246 sq km, with an obvious difference in the relief between the western and eastern sections: the western coast is lined with cliffs, while the east is smoother. Similarly, the northern coast has sharp cliffs, while the southern side is less inclined. Credit: Copernicus Sentinel data (2015)/ESA The island's 9500 residents have lived in relative isolation for many years.

Other organisations have withered and perished, but we have survived and flourished. Why is that? The articles that comprise this small volume offer some of the answers. But first consider the circumstances in which our club began. Fifty years ago, we climbed under difficulties. By today's standards, equipment was antediluvian. Specialist climbing gear was not available, and if it had been we could not have bought it, since clothing was just coming off "coupons", i.e.

The islands are part of Portugal, but the people who live here are hardier than their mainland cousins; descendants of whalers and fishermen, winemakers and farmers, who carved their livelihoods out of stone. I've been visiting the Azores for more than six years, drawn back by the high-drama landscapes and calm, unflappable residents, capable of absorbing the elemental force of the sea and nature that surrounds them.

A welcome dinner with speeches by the staff got everyone excited for the upcoming journey. Friday, May 6 Granada / Malaga / Embark Clipper Odyssey Our first full day of the trip greeted us with sunny skies! The birding group headed off with Peter Harrison and Victor Emanuel Nature Tours representative David Wolf, while the rest of us enjoyed a tour of the sprawling Alhambra Palace and the Generalife Gardens. After a massive lunch we went straight to Malaga, birthplace of Pablo Picasso, and the Clipper Odyssey, our home for the next 13 nights. Saturday, May 7 Gibraltar, United Kingdom This morning we awoke to a light rain and cool temperatures, though nothing could deter us from exploring “The Rock.” Once the birders set off, the rest of us left for Europa Point and the winding streets of the island just as the weather started to clear. We stopped to see the 100-Ton Gun, as well as St. Michael's Cave, complete with impressive stalactites and operatic acoustics. After lunch on the ship we visited the Ape's Den where both our tour guide and geologist Tom Sharpe managed to stay calm as the Barbary apes hopped among them. We also visited the Under Seige Tunnels and passed the Moorish Castle before returning to the ship.
