The tourism industry in Senegal has grown at an annual rate of around 10% over the past 3 decades and now ranks as the second industry in terms of foreign exchange earnings. There are two demonstration projects in Senegal, both placed along the Petite Cote beach area of the country. One project is called; Environmental Management Systems for hotels in the Saly Portudal area on the Petite Cote, and aims to have hotels implement Environmental Management Systems (EMS) and incorporate environmental management criteria into new developments.
