Abstract :Spatial planning is an important tool used to decide the distribution of resources and activities at various scales and areas. Spatial planning is an important aspect focusing on physical planning in various sectors besides tourism. Although spatial planning and the tourism sector may seem like separate concepts at first glance, they are largely related. Analysis and strategic approaches in spatial planning are very important for tourism planning. For this reason, it is necessary to analyze the internal and external dynamics well (SWOT) and to bring strategic solution proposals (TOWS) for these dynamics while doing strategic spatial planning in the regional context. In order to analyze the current situation of tourism, it is necessary to consider both the upper scale (national and regional) and local scales (sub-regional, province and districts) together. This study aims to reveal the Role of SWOT and TOWS Analysis in Creating a Tourism Oriented Spatial Development Strategy / Regional Plan by determining the main problems and comprehensively analyzing the Southern Marmara Region (TR22), sub-region, province, and district scales.Keywords : Mekansal Planlama, SWOT, TOWS, Güney Marmara
