Summary/Abstract: This study refers to the concept of Regional Business Spatial Community (RBSC) supporting the idea of sustainable development of SmartCity. The idea of RBSC is based on the possibility of using a map of the city through the application of GIS (Geographic Information Systems) technology combined with social communication tools thanks to which communities can be built. The article is based on the research material from the work on RBSC and the specificity of coastal cities was analysed through electronic observation (websites of cities) and direct observation based on visits to coastal cities. The analysis was carried out according to five aspects: organisational, functional, informational, spatial and technical. The study presents what specifics should be taken into account in the RBSC of coastal cities.
