El turismo de cruceros ha reaparecido con fuerza desde los años ochenta, acelerándose su implantación en Europa -y en particular en Canarias-, desde la siguiente década. Gran parte de los estudios sobre el turismo de cruceros se han centrado en las características de la demanda (el perfil del turista, la capacidad de gasto, los impactos que causa, etc.). Sin embargo, la literatura sobre la percepción que tienen los residentes sobre este turismo es más bien escasa y donde se centra el actual estudio, en particular en el espacio más inmediato al Puerto de La Luz y de Las Palmas.

It is an activity that has become very popular since the eighties, accelerating its presence in Europe and, particularly,in the Canary Islands since the following decade. Many of the studies on cruise tourism have focused on the characteristics of the demand (including the profile of tourists, spending power, the impacts that this activity causes, etc.). However, the literature on the residents’ perception about this tourism where this study focuses on, is rather scarce is rather scarce, particularly in the space immediately to the Port of La Luz and Las Palmas.
