4 · Highest accommodation pressure

Highest accommodation pressure

Beaches with the highest nearby hotel capacity within a 20-minute walk. This is a planning indicator, not a quality score.

Methodology. Accommodation pressure is a capacity indicator, not a beach quality score. Beaches with limited or no surrounding hotel inventory simply have low pressure values — they are not necessarily quiet, clean, or unmaintained in real life.
