10. Butler’s Tourism Destination Lifecycle Model

11. Seven stages of destination life cycle
Like most products, destinations have a product lifecycle. 
Butler proposed a widely-accepted tourism destination lifecycle model which has 7 distinct stages:
Exploration
A destination begins as a relatively unknown and adventurous visitors initially come in small numbers restricted by lack of access, facilities, and local knowledge. 
Involvement
Local investment in tourism and tourism advertising start. Visitor number begin to increase and government agencies start to develop the infrastructure.
Development
There is a rapid growth in visitor numbers as the destination becomes heavily advertised. The amenities are increased and improved. Visitors change to less adventurous.

12. Seven stages of destination life cycle
Consolidation
Growth in visitor numbers will decline, although total numbers will still increase. Tourism becomes “mass market”
Stagnation
The peak numbers of visitors will have been reached.  Capacity levels for many variables will have been reached or exceeded.  The area will have a well-established image but it will no longer be in fashion.  There will be heavy reliance on repeat visitation and on conventions and similar forms of traffic.
Decline
Visitor number decrease. External investors begin to pull out.
Rejuvenation
New attractions are developed or new natural resources are used to reverse the negative trends in visitor arrivals.

13. Which stage of the model do you think these images are most likely to represent?

During the 1960s, the introduction of cheap air travel began to attract visitors from Northern Europe.
By the 1970s it had turned into a sprawling modern resort.
By the 1980s it had reached Butler’s stage of ‘consolidation’, when the carrying capacity was reached.
