Port authorities are now paying growing attention to the social and environmental risks associated with their cruise operations. Several of these ports are in fact engaged in a structured and, for some, already long-standing approach aimed at reducing the negative externalities of cruise ship stopovers. However, the content analysis of 36 port authority websites revealed that very few of them report on such action plans.
