Taking notice of globalization, the inhabitants of Pomorze focused their interests on bonds with the closest surrounding, with the family. The leading role of knowledge, education, and vocational skills was not recognized. Resting in a quiet surrounding was considered as the leading motive for tourism travel. This shows prospective quantitative and qualitative development of rural tourism, also in areas not far away from the place of permanent residence of Pomorze inhabitants. According to the examined persons the main barrier for the development of rural tourism economy are lack of finance, low in-come from this business activity. Counter to reality, the respondents did not appreciate the necessity for professional management of tourism economy in micro scale (bed, catering and other facilities).
