Summary/Abstract: Since the beginning of mankind’s existence on Earth, people have depended in a great deal on the surrounding environment for providing their basic but essential means for survival. Even to this day, after thousands of years of social and practical evolution, including forms of government and the industrial and technological innovations, we still rely heavily on the natural environment for obtaining the basic elements needed to build, develop and maintain the functions necessary for the survival of the modern day society. One growing aspect of this modern society is tourism and although the economy of a state is not usually based on this domain, it can widely contribute to the prosperity of a nation and even help develop stronger relations between states, thus helping to obtain not only national but also regional security. But, in order to achieve the best results from this domain, both for the prosperity and the health of the people and of the natural environment, the best way is to promote ecotourism as much as possible, using also sustainable development methods for its development.
