In many countries, tourist destinations have been hit by extreme events associated with climate change. These climate changes are also related to natural disasters (such as drought, floods, cyclones and fires), which are increasingly constant in many regions. This has contributed to the incorporation of the problem of vulnerability to natural disasters in the discussions of tourism planning and management at all spatial scales, especially at the local scale. However, in Brazil in particular, in the planning and management of tourist destinations, little has been considered by public policy makers the consequences of extreme events on the dynamics of tourism development, as is the case with natural disasters. In this sense, this work aims to analyze the municipalities in Brazil categorized by the Ministry of Tourism – MTUR – as destinations and, which are vulnerable to natural disasters. The methodological analysis was made from the crossing of data from the MTUR, from the National Tourism Plan (2018-2022), associated with data from the Base Territorial Estatística de Áreas de Risco - BATER, a mapping methodology developed by Assis Dias (et al., 2018), researchers from the National Center for Monitoring and Natural Disaster Alerts - CEMADEM. The results demonstrate that a number of municipalities categorized as tourist destinations in Brazil are vulnerable to the risks of natural disasters. However, it appears that in public tourism policies there are no strategic actions in the management of risks to natural disasters for the tourism sector.
