From what i understand prices are down, but I couldn't get a handle on whether tourism was down.

Single employer, tourism, something else?

Worries: Will have bigger ups and downs, since so many jobs are in tourism.

But now its a hot cake and Uganda being a Pearl of Africa has attracted fast growth in tourism sector, and  hotel development.

One the positive side, Turkey is a tourism powerhouse and the Turkish Lira has lost most of its value against most major currencies.

I'm reluctant to touch anything that is heavily leveraged to tourism at this point due to future lockdown, travel bans, etc.

We may lose money in the short term but I guarantee that you’ll look back and be thankful you didn’t sell when tourism returns.

Check the regulations in both areas, as well as tourism numbers and potential income vs. purchase prices of each.

My reasons for buying here in the first place was that it was in the Go-Zone (post Hurricane Katrina) and that there was a lot of optimism in the area for growth (port expansion, refinery, tourism). 

We do have some nice industries like trona, tourism, agriculture, etc, but make no mistake we are an energy driven state.
