With a relevant impact on production and organization of geographical space, tourism is the object of this study, in that it reconciles with geography to explain changes, transformations, (re) creations caused by movements of the flows (visitors and tourists) and installation of fixed equipment (lodging, bars and restaurants, entertainment and leisure) in a capable dynamic of generating sources of income and work, configuring in cost-effective alternative, but unable to resolve issues such as inequality and poverty. The line of regional analysis guides the research that adopts as the study area the Polo Costa dos Coqueirais in the state of Sergipe, uniting thirteen municipalities of the shoreline by its reputation and priorization as an area of public and private investment for exploration of touristic activity. Dimensions like public policies, the institutionalization of tourism, the composition of the Tourism Polo and its socio-environmental conditions, potential and limitations, and the centrality of the capital, Aracaju, were studied and explained in this paper. For explanation of the spatial organization of tourism, territories and functional areas of tourism were identified, as well as the compositions of tourism offer (fixed) and the profile of tourist demand (flows) were analyzed. Whereas tourism in Brazilian Northeast had great influence by Tourism Development Program (PRODETUR), specially in the decade of 1990, its antecedents have been raised and the current situation about the logic of international financing with the Interamerican Development Bank (BID) has been explained, besides the transformations it caused over the past two decades, also it is possible to compare it to the amount of public investment with other funding sources that support the tourism structure in target destinations. Tourism was presented in a central way at the Polo, generating wealth in concentrated form, but with the possibility of distributing it to other destinations of the Polo since complied with the planning, definition of strategies to diversify the tourism product, and above all, promoting a touristic regionalization that enhances the identity of the place, their knowledge and practices as a different attractive associated to a new reality of interventions in basic infrastructure and tourism, in attracting private investment, to be able to leave then, of the relationship of dependence on tourism operator that serves a massive tourism model, reproduced worldwide to focus capital and power to transform the space to be overcome by endogenous knowledge and community practices that are able to establish new tourism products and transform the space in a positive way for the subjects who inhabit it.
