Caracterización territorial de los recursos turísticos con enfoque comunitario en las misiones y oasis del Municipio de Comondú, Baja California Sur

The present study aims to provide a territorial characterization of tourism resources with a community-based approach in the missions and oases of the municipality of Comondu, Baja California Sur. Natural, cultural, and historical elements with potential for sustainable and community-based tourism were identified and analyzed. The oases of La Purisima, San José de Comondu, and San Luis Gonzaga constitute central elements of the territory, support biodiversity, and preserve traditional productive practices, serving as focal points for nature- and ecotourism activities. Tangible and intangible cultural heritage, including missions, rock paintings, festivals, and local products, strengthens territorial identity and fosters sustainable tourism experiences with active community participation. Despite limitations in infrastructure, connectivity, and tourist services, the interest of residents and visitors highlights opportunities to integrate environmental conservation, local development, and social cohesion. The findings provide strategic inputs for participatory planning and the formulation of sustainable and community-based tourism policies in rural contexts.
