Boot tourism in change

Boot tourism is booming in Germany. This phenomenon is also not unnoticed in the area of ​​Schwerin. During Corona pandemic, many people have shifted the leisure activities on water, which led to an increase in boat traffic. A study shows that boat tourism in Germany generates gross sales over four billion euros. But this boom also brings with it ecological challenges that have so far received little attention, as [geo] (https://www.geo.de/reise/zwraucht-der-bootstourismus-Mehr- Mehren-32833262.html) explained.

In order to not only protect leisure activities, but also nature, more environmentally friendly boat trips are required. Here the Federal Ministry of Transport has clear, but ambivalent plans, because although the expansion of leisure shipping is forced, ecological aspects must be integrated into the master plan.

Schwerin offers a beautiful backdrop for boat tours and remains a hotspot for tourists this summer, both from Germany and from abroad. But it remains to be seen how the challenges that the boom brings with it will affect the region.
