Sažetak
Despite the overall growth of the second home phenomenon in Croatia and worldwide, this phenomenon is still one of the less researched forms of leisure related ways of mobility. Such unwarranted neglect of the research into the nature of the secondary dwelling and its implications infrequently leads to mistakes in physical planning which result in incorrigible consequences. Only after numerous mistakes which occurred during the increase in the number of individual second homes (1970s and 1980s) and intensive apartmentisation (1990s and 2000s), and with the opening of the real estate market to the EU nationals, did the Croatian scientific circles and wider public show a slightly greater interest in this issue. Since secondary recreational dwelling is significant for Croatia, particularly for its littoral, it is mandatory to study it from multidisciplinary perspectives in order to propose appropriate measures and legal solutions which will ensure the future development of the Croatian littoral on the premises of sustainable development. The purpose of the paper is to propose the outline of the study of the second home phenomenon in the receiving area and provide guidelines for its future direction in local communities. It encompasses the following stages: the observation of the recreational attractions of the region, an outline of the developmental dynamics to date as well as spatial distribution and basic characteristics of the second home phenomenon, the study of the motivation of the present and potential second home owners, an analysis of the second home mobilities, the establishment of the shape of the second home phenomenon concentration in the given geographical location, an analysis of geographical, economic and socio-cultural influences and consequences of the second home phenomenon as a basis for establishing the impact of the phenomenon in the regional development as a whole, and the evaluation of the present regulations pertaining to physical planning. The results of all these stages of research will serve as a basis for a proposal for future solutions which will lead towards an optimal direction of the second home phenomenon in the receiving second home areas.
