Due to climate change tourists can be disappointed because the tourist season and the weather has become inconsistent and unpredictable. In many countries, the climate is changing with a tendency to become wetter and warmer, though in each region the changes are varying. For example, countries that provide winter sports, suffer from shorter winters with less snow. Other countries are facing a prolonged drought and heatwaves exchanged by rain periods. With increased climate change the climate-related natural disasters are becoming more frequent which increases tourist unwillingness to visit various destinations.
