Ielts Academic Writing task 1 - Coastal Village 
The given diagrams depict the changes in a coastal village after its development into a big European tourist resort, between 1974 and 2004.

It can be easily observed that the fishing village and surrounding areas underwent a sea change in a matter of 3 decades. The population of this area rose from 12000 to 80,000, and it swells to 130,000 during the tourist season.

The village itself witnessed an expansion, as construction of new tourist shops was done to cater to the tourists. Besides this, what used to be a harbor in 1974 gave way to beaches. The beaches are now lined up by high rise hotels that cover most of the coastline, and also surround the fishing village.

The natural woodlands and olive orchids were also replaced by golf course, for tourists, and farmlands, that feed the travelers, respectively. The pastures also disappeared.

A road was also constructed to connect this region with other parts of the world, and this runs from the beach and through the village.
