“…La oferta de este segmento está presente en otras líneas de investigación, muy marcadas por la notable concentración en un pequeño número de compañías a nivel mundial. La concentración también caracteriza la distribución geográfica de las rutas y destinos visitados, siendo el Caribe el área de mayor actividad crucerística con más del 30% de la capacidad desplegada y el Mediterráneo en una segunda posición con valores cercanos al 20% (Lukovic, 2011;Dowling, 2006).…”

“…Rodrigue y Notteboom (2013) clasifican los itinerarios en las categorías perenne -como el Caribe o el Mediterráneo-, estacional -como puede ser el Báltico-y de reposicionamiento -como los trayectos entre Caribe y Mediterráneo o viceversa y los trayectos Mediterráneo a Dubái. Diversas estrategias se han planteado para afrontar las consecuencias de la estacionalidad en este sector, tales como la diversificación de productos, de puertos y/o de itinerarios (Lukovic, 2011).…”

Resumen: En este trabajo se desarrolla una metodología para el análisis de la estacionalidad del turismo de cruceros. Mediante el uso de varias técnicas estadísticas multivariantes, análisis factorial de componentes principales y cluster, se facilita la obtención de agrupaciones de los destinos, según las características estacionales de la distribución mensual de los pasajeros de cruceros. Adicionalmente, se obtiene el índice de Gini como medida del nivel de concentración estacional anual. La aplicación de esta metodología a los puertos españoles, con datos de los últimos cinco años, ha revelado que la mayoría se puede agrupar en clusters homogéneos y estables en cuanto a sus patrones estacionales, en tanto que algunos puertos no presentan perfiles que los puedan clasificar en grupos tan estables y homogéneos.Palabras clave: turismo de cruceros, estacionalidad, análisis multivariante, índice de Gini, análisis cluster. Seasonality of cruise tourism in Spanish ports. A multivariate approachAbstract: The aim of this paper is to propose a methodological approach for the analysis of the seasonality of cruise tourism. By means of multivariate statistical techniques, principal component factor and cluster analysis, a classification of destination ports is obtained, based on the monthly distribution of cruise passengers. In addition, the Gini index is obtained as a single annual measure of the seasonal concentration in each destination. The application of the proposed methodology to the Spanish ports, with monthly data covering the last five years, reveals that there are some homogeneous groups of ports with stable similar seasonal patterns, while some other ports show less stable and heterogeneous seasonal profiles.

The aim of this paper is to assess the quantity of solid waste in the port of Split produced by cruisers during the past five years. The increased number of cruising guests in the port of Split is associated with more marine litter produced and directly increases a potential impact on the marine environment. To sustainably manage its resources, the city of Split should carefully consider the positive and negative effects of the cruising industry, set up a quality control system in cruising and consider how potential profit impacts on the environment and natural resources.

“…Such cruises include ports that may or may not be specialized for the reception of cruise ships, so the cruise industry deserves particular attention in terms of research and economic analysis. With about 20 million passengers on large cruisers in 2011 and about twice as many on traditional old-timers worldwide, and with a ten-year increase in passengers carried of over 2.5 times 10 , with approximately 150,000 employees working directly in the cruise industry, and twice as many in related industries and with a turnover of 34.1 billion euros in related industries, the cruise industry has a significant role not only in many national economies, but also in the global economy. The European contribution to the global market in 2010 was around 20-30%.…”
