Sažetak
The tourist policy, and the development policy in general, is aimed by rule at increasing the accomodation of tourists in hotels, camps and private accomodation. Increase in the number of tourists results in exponential growth in road traffic, traffic congestion and increased demand for parking spaces during the tourist season. The lack of parking areas multiplies traffic problems, thereby lessening the quality of a tourist destination. Here it should be noted that satisfying parking demands of tourists is equally important for the visitors as tourist services, because if it is not possible to find a parking space within a reasonable time by an appropriate price and location within a reasonable distance from the tourist facilities, the visitors are prevented from 'consuming' and consumption of tourist services, regardless of its attraction or quality. Accordingly, the basic objective of this scientific discussion is to investigate possibilites for creating parking policy in function of developing tourist destinations. In order to accomplish the objective of research in various combinations the scientific methods were used as follows: analysis and synthesis, descriptive methods, induction and deduction, mathematical methods and modeling.
