Abstract
Tourists’ environmentally responsible behavior (ERB) is a critical external factor that influences the attractiveness of tourism destinations. In this study, we propose that the relationship can be the other way around, where destination attractiveness encourages tourists to be involved in ERB. Specifically, we evaluated the causal relationships between destination attractiveness, place attachment, and ERB. Furthermore, we examined how tourists’ age and gender moderate these relationships. Based on the extant literature, relationships between the variables were hypothesized and validated using survey data collected from individuals who traveled to Bali Island, Indonesia. These results suggest that destination attractiveness positively affects environmentally responsible behavior, both directly and through the mediation of place attachment. However, this effect differs among male and female tourists. The implications of this study for the development of sustainable tourism destinations are discussed.
