Stari Slankamen is a village in the Vojvodina Province (Northern Serbia), which administratively belongs to the municipality of Indjija in Srem district. Research for this paper was carried out mainly in the field work through visits of the facilities and by interviewing the experts. All of the information was gathered from various research papers, as well as verbally. The goal is to conclude, through the study of natural and anthropogenic values, the current situation in the observed location. The objectivity and possibilities for the implementation in accordance with their available potentials were taken into account. The goals are directed towards increasing the level of quality of the provision of services to prospective tourists as well as improving the current situation in Stari Slankamen. The survey questionnaire was used during the research. Respondents were visitors from Novi Sad and Stari Slankamen as well as the employees of the local restaurants who were asked to estimate the existing potentials for the development of tourism in Stari Slankamen. Based on the analysis of dependent and independent variables, it has been concluded that existing resources are not used properly for tourism purposes and that the prerequisites exist only if effort and resources are added towards these purposes.
