How Sustainable Are We?
The South West acccommodates more than 22 million visitor trips each year. Over 80% of our visitors arrive by car. Our visitors related spend is £8.9 billion. Sustainability South West believes that only by working together can we achieve a thriving sustainable tourism industry that satisfies the aspirations of visitors, businesses and the community without damaging the quality of the region's special environment.
