Sažetak
Tourism and recreation exert an increasing pressure on the environment, particularly coastal ecosystems, communities and cultural heritage. Environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) involves assessments of aspects of the environment and society (landscape, heritage, air, soil, biodiversity, indigenous peoples) that are likely to be significantly affected by a proposed project. They are the extension of environmental impact assessment (EIA). ESIAs must increasingly consider the alternatives in terms of project design, location, size and scale. The paper analyses current ESIA practice regarding tourism and accompanying infrastructure in the Republic of Croatia and proposes the improvement of legislative provisions and their implementation in the interest of assessing better various impacts and adopting the decisions providing for preservation of precious ecosystems in Croatia.
