摘要：
As opposed to mass tourism, new types of sustainable alternative tourism that are practiced in protected areas have appeared in recent years. The aim of this study is to determine the categories of protected areas present in the Dominican Republic and their possible uses for tourism. The results show that the country has great potential to develop tourism in all it's categories of protected areas.
