Resumo: The many natural risks, basically of a climatic nature, along with the exacerbated urban expansion, even generating uncontrolled urbanization processes in some regions of our country, make the Spanish territory one of the areas with the highest levels of natural risk in Europe, with the impact that it entails on a territorial, economic and, above all, human level. And, is that, we mustn´t forget that, the so-called “natural risks”, affect the population, both residents and those who come to spend holiday or leisure seasons, thus affecting tourism activities, and, therefore, generating a significant impact on the economy of a country like Spain. In this way, in the present research, we proceed to study and analyze the impacts and dangers to which the territories as well as their people and their tourist economic activities are subjected, consequence of the continuous incidence of the so-called “explosive cyclogenesis”, that mark the character of a space such as the one encompassed in the so-called Galician “Rías Baixas”, territory in which tourism activities benefit, and, at the same time, they are harmed by a climate that sometimes generates traumatic processes in the aforementioned activities, with remarkable repercussions.
