Abstract: Abstract It is our goal to review the existing bibliography on the determinants of thermal waters tourism, its resources and its impact. This article presents both the characteristics of thermal tourism and the distinction between health thermal tourism and leisure thermal tourism. On the presentation of the several variables taken into account to the right readings on what this kind of tourism is, we concluded that it is a developing activity and it translates the increase on the population longevity along with the desires of: living more, living better and looking for new well-being experiences.
