The Tampa Bay Hotel upon it's completion,1892. Auteur(s) : Burgert Brothers, 1917- ( Photographer ) Résumé : When Henry B. Plant brought the railroad to Tampa in 1884, he opened the door for many businesses to locate and flourish here. The railroad was at the center of the city's economy. From downtown it went to Port Tampa where one could board a Plant steamship to Jamaica, Cuba, New Orleans, Bermuda or other destinations. A spur of the rail line brought the train up to the west front of the hotel so guests could depart the train and walk directly into the lobby.
The Tampa Bay Hotel cost approximately 2.5 million dollars to build and $500,000 to furnish. Consisting of 511 rooms, some of which were suites of 3-7 rooms, it provided a degree of luxury never before seen in Tampa. Most of the rooms had their own baths and all had electricity and telephones. In addition, guests were surrounded by a varied collection of furniture, porcelains, Venetian-style mirrors, and sculptures gathered by Mr. and Mrs. Plant in their travels in Europe.
The Tampa Bay Hotel opened in 1891 amid wide fanfare and celebration. Henry Plant's dream was now a reality. The newspapers of the day described it as "brightly illuminated, filled with sumptuous decorations, thrilling music and graced with turrets, domes and minarets towering heavenward and glistening in the sun." It was a Victorian palace.
The hotel was a lively place with balls, tea parties, and organized hunts during the winter social season. It was open seasonally from December to April in the 1890's. Once a guest arrived at the hotel, he needed to be entertained. Guests went wild game hunting as well as fresh and salt-water fishing. Water sports were also included like sailing, rowing, and canoeing. For the less adventuresome, there were bicycles, carriages, and rickshaws to ride you around the property. The hotel also offered golf, tennis, shuffleboard, billiards, and even a racetrack. (Funding) Funded in part by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), Ephemeral Cities Project.

Volcano tourism in St. Lucia and Dominica: Combining Science and Community Auteur(s) : Joseph, Erouscilla Année de publication : Loading the player... Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles AREBio Groupe de recherche BIOSPHERES : BIOlogie, Sciences Physiques & Humaines pour les énergies Renouvelables, l Extrait de : 1er colloque international BIOSPHERES, du 18 au 20 juin 2019. Université des Antilles Description : Volcano tourism plays an important role in the economies of volcanic islands in the Lesser Antilles. On islands like St. Lucia and Dominica these volcanoes have been utilized as geoparks and the areas even being designated as World Heritage Sites. In many of these islands, farming communities also live on the slopes to these volcanoes and with the increased pursuit of geothermal energy the siting of geothermal operations are also located in close proximity. Volcanic activity, therefore, has a significant impact on these islands at a local and national level. Many volcanomonitoring institutions face the financial and human resources challenge of providing ongoing monitoring services to economically burdened small island states. This has often led to the exploration of alternative low-cost monitoring options and strategies to be adopted by monitoring agencies. One such strategy is the adoption of a volcanic risk reduction approach to research and monitoring activities, which integrates the social and physical sciences through the engagement of local communities as partners with scientists in disaster risk reduction. We present a recent approach adopted using this type of strategy in St. Lucia and lessons learnt from this approach with implications for volcano tourism on island. The potential use of this strategy in Dominica is also presented, given the economic challenges the island currently faces during its ongoing recovery efforts from Hurricane Maria in 2017.

Costa Rica : du petit pays « démocratique, sain et pacifique », au leader de l’écotourisme et de la protection de l’environnement Auteur(s) : Raymond, Nathalie Éditeur(s) : Université des Antilles Études caribéennes Résumé : Le Costa Rica est devenu une référence incontournable sur le plan de l’écotourisme et de la conservation de l’environnement depuis une quinzaine d’années. Le pays est « célèbre pour son approche éclairée de la préservation de l’environnement ». Environ 27 % de la superficie du pays est protégée et les parcs nationaux couvrent plus de 13 % du territoire costaricien. À travers l’analyse des processus de développement du tourisme, l’exemple du Costa Rica démontre l’importance des facteurs politiques et du contrôle des images dans la mise en tourisme d’un lieu. Costa Rica has become an essential reference point in terms of ecotourism and conservation of the environment over the past fifteen years. The country became famous for its original policy to preserve the environment. Approximately 27% of the country's land is protected and national parks cover more than 13% of the Costa Rican territory. An analysis of the Costa Rican approaches to the development of tourism, provides an example of the importance of political factors and the control of “image” in the popular and public imagination.
