In this work, a computational model based on the Analytical Hierarchy Process is proposed to evaluate main coastal characteristics, providing a safety index score. Beaches located at La Paz, South Baja California, Mexico are measured, and assessed to show the proposed model performance, providing a good alternative to impulse tourism.

This work proposes the design of a computational model based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process to obtain a Beach Assessment Index that issues recommendations for tourism activities. The purpose of this index is to provide relevant information for tourists who are preparing to travel and stay on Mexican beaches.

In this work, a computational model based on an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is developed, with the purpose of obtaining a cost evaluation index. Parameters such as temperature, waves, solar radiation, humidity and wind speed are used for this model, which were measured and analyzed. This index helps to provide relevant information for tourists who are preparing to travel to Mexico.
