The coastal environment is an area of conflict, where the marine dynamics intertwine with the tourist flow, originating, from the environmental point of view, an unstable space, in which the impacts are potentially bigger. The objective of the research is to propose a coastal geotourism route for the city of João Pessoa, wich will allow the dissemination the abiotic and cultural-historical aspects of the landscape, aiming to contribute to its maintenance and conservation in the long term. To this, these places of interest were selected after a thorough fieldwork that involved their inventory and quantitative assesment. The places of interest are: Jacarapé Ferruginous Sandstones, Altiplano Paleodunes, Holocene Marine Terrace, Cabo Branco Cliff, Tambaú Sedimentary Balance, Bar of Gramame, Primitive Mouth of Jaguaribe River and Picãozinho. The existence of interpretative trails assigns a new function, now from the geotouristic point of view, to the itineraries, as they enrich the experience of tourists, to whom is given the opportunity of knowing the abiotic heritage and the cultural heritage from another perspective, apart from enhancing their environmental awareness. |
