The province of Zeeland, the Netherlands, is known for its coastal leisure and tourism activities, making a major contribution to the regional economy. Over decades, the province has seen both growth and stagnation in the number of visitors. In this thesis, practice theory is used to examine coastal tourism destination development in Zeeland. Studies focusing on these coastal tourism destination developments are often traditional and limited. Traditional approaches, methods and models do not give a sufficient overview of how complex tourism destinations and their development really are, and therefore not helpful for obtaining a thorough understanding.In this thesis, a socio-cultural approach to destination development is taken in which practice theory is used to study processes of development across three cases: 1) the lifestyle sport of kiteboarding; 2) the Zeelandpas destination card, and; 3) the recreation project of Waterdunen. In these three cases, I showed how coastal tourism destination development can be studied as the bundling of practices.By concentrating on the forging and breaking of relations, coastal tourism destination development can be de-dramatized and understood as a process that is embedded in everyday practicesPractice theory is applied in order to meet this thesis' objective to better understand coastal tourism destination development processes by critically investigating the relations between practices. In doing so, it answers the following main question: How does the use of practice theory offer an understanding of coastal tourism destination development?In order to answer the main research question, each case study answers a sub research question: 1) How did the lifestyle sport kiteboarding develop as a social practice? 2) How did the destination promotion card Zeelandpas, as a connecting practice, bundled existing practices? 3) How did Waterdunen, as a coastal recreation project, develop by bundling and unbundling practices?In the kiteboarding case study, the performative character of social life is foregrounded to see how kiteboarding is done practically and relationally. 'Zooming in' shows the active and performative integration of particular meanings, materials and competences. 'Zooming out' examines the relations between kiteboarding and other practices. Interviews with 10 practitioners and 12 experts were combined with social media content analysis and participant observation. The Zeelandpas destination card case study shows how connections between practices are made and how constituent practices have changed accordingly. Central was the bundling of practices and the material arrangements that mutually affect and precondition one another. Interviews with 20 people that were involved in the development of the card were conducted and 13 involved entrepreneurs surveyed. Additionally, a total of 32 project documents and 27 collected media announcements were analysed. In the Waterdunen project, coastal defence works are combined with new possibilities for recreation and nature conservation. Approaching Waterdunen as an ecology of practices allowed me to identify the practices involved and provide a timeline of the most important developments. I also examined how particular cultural-discursive, material-economic and socio-political arrangements influenced the development process. Interviews with 9 key informants were combined with desk research, consisting of the analysis of 682 newspaper articles and 57 project communications, studies and reports.KiteboardingZooming in on kiteboarding disclosed 'natural high', 'freedom', and 'excitement' as emotions related to kiteboarding. Kiteboarders also treasure the natural environment, as it reduces stress and sets practitioners free.

520 $a De provincie Zeeland staat bekend om haar kustrecreatie en -toerisme; deze leveren een belangrijke bijdrage aan de regionale economie. In de afgelopen decennia is het aantal bezoekers aan de provincie zowel gegroeid als afgenomen. In dit proefschrift wordt de praktijkenbenadering gebruikt om de ontwikkeling van toeristische bestemmingen aan de Zeeuwse kust te onderzoeken. Studies gericht op deze toeristische kustbestemmingen zijn vaak traditioneel en beperkt. Traditionele benaderingen, methoden en modellen geven onvoldoende zicht op de complexiteit van toeristische bestemmingen en hun ontwikkeling en helpen ons daardoor niet aan diepgaand inzicht.In dit proefschrift wordt daarom een sociaal-culturele benadering van bestemmingsontwikkeling gehanteerd, waarbij een praktijkenbenadering wordt gebruikt om de ontwikkelingsprocessen in drie casus te bestuderen: 1) de lifestyle sport kiteboarden; 2) de ZeelandPas; en 3) het recreatieproject Waterdunen. Voor deze drie casus heb ik laten zien hoe de ontwikkeling van toeristische kustbestemmingen kan worden bestudeerd als een bundeling van praktijken.Het doel van dit proefschrift is het bereiken van een beter begrip van de ontwikkelingsprocessen van toeristische kustbestemmingen door de relaties tussen praktijken kritisch te onderzoeken. Daarbij wordt de volgende hoofdvraag beantwoord: Hoe biedt het gebruik van een praktijkenbenadering inzicht in de ontwikkeling van toeristische kustbestemmingen?Om een antwoord te vinden op die hoofdvraag, beantwoordt elke casestudy een deelonderzoeksvraag: 1) Hoe heeft de lifestyle sport kiteboarden zich ontwikkeld als een sociale praktijk? 2) Hoe heeft de ZeelandPas, als verbindende praktijk, bestaande praktijken gebundeld? 3) Hoe heeft Waterdunen, als kustrecreatieproject, zich ontwikkeld door bundeling en loskoppeling van praktijken?In de casus van kiteboarden wordt het performatieve karakter van het sociale leven benadrukt om te zien hoe kiteboarden praktisch en relationeel gebeurt. "Inzoomen" toont de actieve en performatieve integratie van bepaalde betekenissen, materialen en competenties. "Uitzoomen" is daarentegen gericht op het onderzoeken van de relaties tussen kiteboarden en andere praktijken. Interviews met 10 beoefenaars en 12 deskundigen werden aangevuld met een inhoudsanalyse van sociale media en observatie van deelnemers. De casus van de ZeelandPas laat zien hoe verbindingen tussen praktijken worden gelegd en hoe de betreffende praktijken daardoor zijn veranderd.. Er zijn interviews gehouden met 20 personen die betrokken waren bij de ontwikkeling van de pas, en met 13 betrokken ondernemers. Daarnaast werden in totaal 32 projectdocumenten en 27 berichten in de media geanalyseerd. In het project van Waterdunen zijn kustverdedigingswerken gecombineerd met nieuwe mogelijkheden voor recreatie en natuurbehoud. Door Waterdunen te benaderen als een ecologie van praktijken kon ik de betrokken praktijken in kaart brengen en een tijdlijn schetsen van de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen. Ik onderzocht ook hoe bepaalde cultureel-discursieve, materieeleconomische en sociaal-politieke regelingen het ontwikkelingsproces beinvloedden. De interviews met 9 sleutelinformanten werden aangevuld met deskresearch, bestaande uit een analyse van 682 krantenartikelen en 57 projectberichten, studies en verslagen.KiteboardenInzoomen op kiteboarden onthulde "natural high", "vrijheid" en "opwinding" als emoties die bij deze sport lijken te horen. Kiteboarders koesteren ook de natuurlijke omgeving, omdat die stress vermindert en beoefenaars het gevoel van vrijheid geeft.Kiteboarders kunnen niet zonder voldoende vaardigheden en de juiste uitrusting.
