Beach pavilion operators, the Municipality of Zandvoort and the Provincial government of North Holland have engaged a private firm to draw-up a plan for ‘sustainable beach management’ in the municipal area of Zandvoort. The need for this arose from the market itself in order to be able to offer tourists a clean, safe, environmentally conscious area in which the preservations of natural values substantially contributes to recreational behaviour and appreciation for the natural environment. The plan must create a win-win situation for consumers and businesses. Stakeholders include tourists, businesses and society in general.
