Resumo
The safety, security and tourism are concepts that must keep engaged in the process of tourism
planning and management to value the landscape of tourist territory. Security, as part of the tourist
offer, should not be ignored in the process of development of territories, because they may lose the
image quality and the benefits from the sector, which can install the chaos and unprecedented way to
valorize or devaluate the landscape. This study aimed to show the importance of safety for the
development of tourism at Inhambane municipality (IM) in Mozambique. In a time that tourist
demands are more exigent and qualified and the competition bigger between the tourist destinations,
the activities of planning the territory through studies of touristic offer, are crucial, to public and
private managers. Through bibliographic and documental review, the use of questionnaires and
interviews, observation and a workshop, sought information’s that supported the theoretical
construction of tourist safety and also elucidate the real situations of tourist destinations that
experienced by weakness in its security systems. Mozambique and the IM are not far from this reality,
because the study demonstrated that there are problems in the tourism planning and management, in
general, and specifically in the tourism safety. It is understood that the IM and Mozambique are
destinations that can see their efforts doomed to failure if in short and medium time, the managers of
tourism, not incorporate, into their planning and management, specific actions that contribute to
improving the quality of tourist offer. Political and military conflicts and the exposure of the territory
to extreme events in the territories, as the cyclones, for example, associated with the lack of resources
and weak preparedness of private and public managers are the main risks that could "undermine" the
tourism development specifically and local development in general. The situations described support
the thesis that the stakeholders in the tourism sector, in Inhambane municipality, ignore the tourist
safety as a key element for providing positive social and spatial dynamics, situation that will lead the
tourism sector to failure.
