Resumo(s)
Over the decades the sea has always been present in economic activities, either as a food source, a means of transportation,
or as a way of doing commercial trade. In more recent years, a new concept of the utilization of the oceans has
emerged, namely the Blue Economy (BE) which is a concept that focuses on economic activities that depend on the sea,
including tourism, maritime transport, energy, and fishing. This concept aims to promote, economic growth, social inclusion
and to improve life without compromising the ocean’s environmental sustainability. The scope of this study is on
the utilization of living marine resources with the purpose of understanding the performance of the EU member states.
In order to achieve this, a quantitative cluster analysis was conducted, and later a cluster categorization focuses on the
Iberian Peninsula countries. The results obtained show how different countries implement their BE policies and contribute
to its development, revealing their strengths and improvement areas.
