industry has grown dramatically as one of the main
foreign exchange earners and employment provider.
Since Sri Lanka depends enormously on tourism for
its growth and development, this book provides an

industry in the island to the international
community. In compliance with growing trend, the

international tourist destination and its current
marketing activities in the tourism trade. Moreover,

and to suggest guidelines for the future destination
marketing strategies. Additionally, the book also
aims at mirroring a clear picture of the industry.
We

will assist particularly destination management
policy makers for
developing productive marketing strategies. It will
pinpoint some
recommendations that need to be considered in future
development
plans for the tourism industry in Sri Lanka.
