Abstract

Among several methodological options available to the management of the impacts and handling of the visiting in the conservation units we have the Canadian Visitor Activity Management Process (VAMP). The method was adapted and applied to the State Park of Ilha do Mel (PEIM) in the coastline of the State of Paraná to study its use by the public. In this context, these works have the central objective to expose the adoption of the VAMP and how it was adapted and applied to the conditions of the PEIM. The mechanism of this application, the generated information and the propositions to subsidize the handling of the public use of the Park, are presented as the results. Also considering that the VAMP, among the management of the impacts and handling of the public use methods in protected areas, presents more affinity with the profile studies, as well as the behavior and public perception in natural tourism destinations.
