Abstract
This working paper focuses in enjoyment factors, specifically: number of
beach users, perceived maximum number of beach users accepted, perceived maximum
number of beach users that affects the tourism experience and perceived maximum
number of beach users that affects the beach quality. At a deeper extent, the evaluation is
categorized by number of visitation, visitation motivations, and Chenang Island’s push
and pull factors. Relationships between variables were assessed using a two-phase
evaluation framework where interestingly, only one demographic factor works with all the
studied independent variables. It is also learned that the density of an area (number of
people seen) is considered as an accepted crowding factor, as opposed to this working
paper scope (experienced crowding). A unique relationship was observed for crowding
level, and visitation satisfaction level and overall evaluation of Chenang beach quality.
This working paper further supports the previous literature on the significance of beach
carrying capacity management and it is learned that the idea of crowding standard is
interlinks with ‘gender, ‘time spend’ and ‘number of boaters’. From findings, this
working paper envisages the preferences polar exchange where this should be of interest
to tourism-related personnel. It is within this working paper interest to highlight the
pressing need in brandishing the image of Chenang Beach. This is to ensure that Chenang
Beach, as a field, is maintaining its importance and popularity.
