Mértola: Biosphere certification process “SUSTAINABLE TOURIST DESTINATION ” has already started.


The Municipality of Mértola, Turismo de Alentejo and Ribatejo ERT and Biosphere Portugal have started work on the certification process of Mértola as a Sustainable Tourist Destination within the scope of the requirements of the Biosphere Destination benchmark.

This is an important process that will contribute to the notoriety and strategic positioning of the Mértola destination in the global market of tourist destinations with sustainability certification, meeting current growth trends in tourism markets associated with tourist offers that value social sustainability, economic and environmental of the territories.

As part of this certification project, an Action Plan for Sustainability will be drawn up that will involve tourism agents in the territory. It is scheduled for February 2025 signing the Letter of Commitment to Sustainability and presenting the process to local tourism agents.
