Full Project description

Wellbeing&wellness are fast growing trends in tourism. SB WELL aims at promoting SB coastline as attractive destination for wellbeing tourism among regional/international potential visitors. The project recognizes the opportunities & facilitates SMEs in offering products/services in wellbeing tourism and makes related information visible &accessible for target market.
SB WELL will deliver four main outputs, namely:

  1. Roadmap for developing, delivering, branding and promoting sustainable wellbeing tourism in the SB region;
  2. Set of guidelines/criteria for Wellbeing tourism in the SB region & good practices;
  3. Cross-border interactive Wellbeing Atlas;
  4. Pilot sites for wellbeing & promotion; symbolic centres of regional networks in wellbeing tourism.

SB WELL foresees some infrastructure works. In each region participating in the Project a Wellbeing place will be constructed. These places will be  dedicated to silence and connected to the landscape and are a new type of places that will symbolize increased focus on sustainability and wellbeing for visitors & the host region in the tourism industry.
SB WELL will directly result in increased awareness among potential visitors on what SB region has to offer with regard to wellbeing/clear branding of the coastal region as a competitive actor on the global market. In turn this will lead to increased development as well as popularity of the SB’s natural & cultural heritage assets into tourism destinations.
