Abstract
The aim of the study is to summarise and review the historical documents relating to the development and evolution of the Lake Velence area, not only to provide an insight into the history and changing functions of the Lake Velence municipalities, but also to provide a chronological overview of local economic development ideas, their implementation and practical results. A wide range of primary and secondary, quantitative and qualitative research methods were used to investigate the situation and development potential of the seven municipalities with tourist functions under study (Gárdony, Kápolnásnyék, Pákozd, Pázmánd, Sukoró, Nadap, Velence). In addition to identifying the untapped potential, it is also important to find an answer to the question of how to solve the fundamental problem of tourism businesses, namely the seasonal fluctuation of visitor flows.
