| Summary: | The Isle of Man was once a busy, upmarket tourism destination, but it has declined dramatically since its 1950's heyday.
This project reviews the possibilities for tourism development in a small island on the periphery of the UK and Europe. Research of island stakeholders gauges demand for tourism revival and what is sought from this.
