The research was based on the analysis of tourist load capacity (CCT), with the methodology of Cifuentes 2003, Finding first the physical load capacity (CCF), then analyzed correction factors (Fc) o find the actual load capacity (CCR), it was subsequently analyzed as manageable capacity (CM) and this was multiplied with the CCR. Thus achieving the effective load capacity (CCE) or what is called the tourist load capacity (CCT). The results of which were: CCF 2 692 visits per day; Fc. 0.324002; CCE 872 visitors per day and finally CCE 483 visitors per day.
