Sažetak
In this paper the authors present the project “Stone lights”. This project is based on acquisition of positive experiences in the conservation of lighthouses by integrating history, ecology and tourism. The project was set up in 2001 and it has been going on till the present day. The aim of the project is to commercialise lighthouses’ edifices by remodelling them in apartments. In that way various direct and indirect benefits are obtained especially on islands. Financial means achieved in that way are intended for renovation and preservation of lighthouses as cultural and historical monuments but they are also intended for their revitalisation by doing new activities. Including lighthouses in tourist offer, their primary role, that is the safety of navigation and life together with other lighthouse keepers (for example on the Island of Palagruža), would not be hindered. Lighthouse edifices in Croatia represent a significant tourist potential on very attractive locations. Lighthouses included in tourist offer differ according to size, number of apartments, and vicinity of tourist destinations, traffic infrastructure and location. In this paper past results are analysed and possibilities and restrictions regarding the development of lighthouse tourism in Croatia are defined. In Swot analysis the authors emphasise the importance of this project for promotion of lighthouse tourism as a special and exclusive selective form.
