The article discusses five key approaches to destinations, which I link to the types of tourism development discussed in chapter four of our textbook. There are three types of tourism development and they include tourist enclaves, resorts and tourist zones (Williams, Stephen and Alan Lew, p. 87-88). The topic of this article and these types of tourism development are linked to each other because these forms of tourism development are “destinations” in themselves. For example, one of the forms of tourism development is a resort. The textbook defines a resort as “a specific property that offers a combination of accommodations and recreation and leisure services, and a destination that offers them collectively” (Williams, Stephen, and Alan Lew, p. 87-88). I relate this definition to the first key approach discussed in the article, which explains how the basic needs of a destination are to have a destination, transportation and activities within the destination ((Howie, F.
