Abstract

This paper investigates the connections between stakeholder awareness of climate change, government support, coping strategies, and their impact on tourism activities in Ras Sudr. Using a quantitative approach, data was collected via a survey administered to tourism sector employees and analyzed using SmartPLS 4. The results reveal a concerning negative association between Stakeholder awareness of climate change and government support, emphasizing the need for increased government commitment to address climate change impacts on tourism. Government support negatively affects coastal tourism activities, tourism-based marine ventures, and kite surfing tourism, highlighting the critical role of government policies. Government support mediates the link between Stakeholder awareness of climate change and negative consequences for tourism activities. Coping strategies moderate the relationship between government support and the adverse effects of climate change on coastal tourism activities and kite surfing tourism. Seasonal variations in these moderation effects were observed, with the fall season influencing coastal tourism activities more and the winter season affecting kite surfing tourism. This paper emphasizes raising public awareness about climate change and advocating for enhanced governmental support and effective coping mechanisms to mitigate detrimental impacts on tourism activities. Collaborative efforts among government authorities, tourism organizations, and local communities are necessary to promote sustainable practices and climate-resilient infrastructure.
