REVITALISATION OF RESKO PRZYMORSKIE LAKESHORE AS A PART OF THE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Abstract

Lake Resko Przymorskie is one of Poland's Baltic coastal lagoons located in an unusually attractive area for tourism. Due to low quality waters as well as its high vulnerability to degradation, the lake has been poorly used by tourists and fishers alike. Hence, it is necessary to urgently undertake actions leading to revitalisation of the lake and its surrounding.A concept has been proposed for this purpose. The plan of development and revitalisation of the lakeshore area includes an outline of tourism-activity zone located along the southern banks of the lake. The zone is aimed to support local tourism-based economic growth without additional burdening of the attractive though fragile peninsula which encloses the lake from the north.

Key words: lakeshore, revitalisation, development, lake, planning
