resort towns
Tourist beach communities
Resort towns are communities built around or economically dependent on tourism and leisure activities.
They typically develop near beaches, ski slopes, lakes, or other attractions that draw visitors: Aspen is one of Colorado's most famous resort towns.
The term often implies seasonal population swings, with permanent residents vastly outnumbered during peak tourist seasons.
