The main goal of the paper is to present the so-called "blue zones" - places with the longest life expectancy where people over 100 years old live. followed by countries with an average age of the population over 80 years old. The main goal of the paper is to present the so-called "blue zones" - places with the longest life expectancy where people over 100 years old live. Data are presented on the number of years of the oldest people over 100 years old from biblical times to the present day, for the world and partially for Macedonia.
Controversial thoughts about the blue zones are also given. Several tables provide insights into the movement of the average age of the population over 80 for several countries.
This research opens up an opportunity for publicity and promotion of healthy living, to celebrate life, to constantly allude to education, active recreation, but also leaves room for pragmatic tourist activity towards the elderly population.
The thoughts are going in the direction of active recreation and vacation for the elderly through stationary tourism (staying in hotels, tourist settlements, etc.), but also through passenger, mobile tourism (with cruise ships adapted for the elderly over 80 and 100 years old). We present a reflection on the valuation of "blue zones", areas and neighborhoods with elderly people in many countries around the world, and their implementation in tourism. We also propose the establishment of a section in museums dedicated to people over 100 years old in countries with a significant participation of this group of people.
The conclusion presents the main specifics of zones with an older population in the function of tourism in the world and in the R.N. Macedonia.
