Weather and climate information and forecasts of extreme climatic conditions provided by National Meteorological and Hydrological Services are becoming increasingly important for ecotourism. Climate change poses an increased risk to the functionality of ecotourism facilities. Thus, the government and the private sector should pay particular attention to the management and application of climate information, the inclusion of climate factors in ecotourism and in ecotourism development policies. This requires effective coordination between environmental and tourism organizations, especially between WMO and WTO. Further research in the field of tourism will be critical to ensure the effective implementation of tourism safety in the country. For the tourism business, weather and climate information and forecasting of extreme climate events developed by National Meteorological and Hydrological Services are gaining in importance, given that the programming of many tourism activities is highly climate dependent and ecotourism insurance practices are highly dependent on natural disasters.
