Essay On The Economy Of Sterling Bay
Question
Read the following case about Sterling Bay, and answer the questions.
Sterling Bay is a small settlement of 5000 people located on the tip of a peninsular. Being situated by the sea and at an area with particularly abundant marine life, the economy of the town has always revolved around fishing and other businesses that support this industry.
Physical Geography:
The town is located at the foot of a series of hills and within easy access and view of a beautiful beach. Further along the beach are also a cluster of unique limestone caves with numerous rock pool formations within. As the town has a small population, the built up area only occupies a small portion of the land just off the beach, with a stretch of forest bordering the town. The land around the town is unfertile for any form of agriculture. Also, geographically, the land is rather flat and would be easy to develop. The town is also served by 2 roads; a narrow, 2 way coastal road and a second less developed road that comes over the nearby hills. A new highway is being built further inland and it would not be difficult to ‘cut’ an exit leading to Sterling Bay.
Human Geography:
The population of Sterling Bay consists of families with multiple generations. First generation settlers started up the town and were the original fishermen. They have had a generation of children who carried on the business. Those children have now given birth to a third generation who are reaching young adulthood, and who are starting to get involved in the livelihood of fishing. The town is also well known for fresh and tasty seafood, cooked by the women folk, who are also highly skilled in weaving.
Present developments:
As the rest of the country modernizes and diversifies the scope of economic activity, the local government at Sterling Bay are considering their options. At a glance, there appears to be a strong case for tourism as one of the potential new industries for the area.
Task: Outline a plan to develop tourism at Sterling Bay.
In your plan:
· Describe the approach that the government at Sterling Bay should use to evaluate various options for diversifying the economy?

· Identify potential socio-cultural advantages and disadvantages of developing tourism at Sterling Bay.
Pay attention to the information given about Sterling Bay; facts about the place and the people residing there. Your answer should reflect a good level of understanding and analysis of the information given.

I ordered my zoology assignments to these guys. First I was reluctant to pay them. However after the initial payment, they provided me a draft of work. I was indeed amazed with the work quality and I ordered for the rest.

I was really stuck with my signal processing assignment in my third year of engineering and needed serious help. It was then when I came across this wonderful website. The experts here are open to suggestions and unassuming and instead of a situation where they act like they know everything (as in the case of most online tutoring websites) they listened to me and helped me out. I really liked what they did with all my assignments and most importantly helped me get good grades.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
