Bibliography

The following bibliography is intended to be a resource for surf tourism researchers. Those of us that entered the field early know how difficult it was to source the few existing materials out there. No longer.

This bibliography was largely compiled by Dr Steve Martin of the Prince of Songla University, Thailand for his excellent review paper of surf tourism research between 1997 and 2011. Papers published in the field since 2011 have been added. Please let us know if you have a publication you’d like added or if we can help you access some of these works.
