In this paper, the author presents the methods of multi-criteria analysis used for selecting the location of a nautical tourism port by using, in an example of the selected location of nautical tourism port on the Northern Adriatic, an analytic and graphical evaluation for solving such a problem. In this paper PROMETHEE I and II and GAIA methods have been used. Particular attention has been paid to the use of GAIA method, which is suitable for visualisation of the problem characteristics through a geometrical interpretation and a presentation of the results of the multi-criteria analysis. By application of the described methods, it is possible to establish the most acceptable location considering the principles of sustainable development. The importance of applying multi-criteria analysis and multi-criteria use of selected methods, which contains criteria and sub-criteria for selecting the optimal location of a nautical tourism port, has been pointed out. In the paper results of the research “Criteria for selecting the location of a nautical tourism port” conducted during 2006/2007 have been used.
