Abstract
Sustainability is a popular trend in nowadays life, concerning development and operation, also in tourism sector. However, there is a confusion about the different meanings of sustainability and whether it can be achieved in tourism. Therefore a problem arises: does sustainable development apply to tourism? The pupose of this paper is to reveal the necessity of sustainable development in tourism due to limited resources and significant concern about environment that are to be used by future generations. To explore the principles and objectives of sustainable development in tourism first it is necessary to define the term “sustain-able development”. Despite the widespread acceptance of sustainable develop-ment, there remains a lack of consensus over the actual meaning of this term. It means different things to different people and can be applied to many con-text, including tourism. Nonetheless, the most general but accurate is the definition provided by the Bruntdland Report: “sustainable development is one that meets the needs of the present generation without comprising the ability for future generations to meet their own needs.
