"The results showed that cultural tourism in Pelotas, while it exists, holds potential for further development, dependent upon the willingness of the local authorities and local residents to invest in the town to stimulate its economy and allow Pelotas to shine once again within the State of Rio Grande do Sul and to produce for its people, and the region as a whole, a better, more dignified, quality of life."

: None of the definitions of "explore" (in EN) meet the meaning of "explorar" in this context. Here explorar means to get tourism to generate more revenue, jobs, etc. :) Nearly all those examples are using "explore" in the sense of "investigate."

there's more to discover
Another option would be to say "there's more to discover about the tourism industry". I have seen this used quite a lot in tourist-related texts.
A few examples:

: I'm sorry to disagree, but you list a cite that says ""exploitation" may carry two distinct meanings"" but you only describe one of them. The most common meaning of "exploit" = To use something in an unjust or cruel manner. Wikipedia confirms this.

exploited
Acredito que se está falando disso: exploit, no sentido de "to make use of; turn to account; utilize productively", e também "advertising to stir up interest in; promote [to exploit a product]", como definido pelo Webster's, e não de "explore" que é "to travel in (a region previously unknown or little known) in order to learn about its natural features, inhabitants, etc.".

: Ralph, "exploit" usually means to hurt someone for illicit gain./ I don't care what the dictionaries say- I care what the word means in accepted usage. "explorar" is one of the hardest words in Portuguese to translate. "Develop" is usually the intent.

No, Jack, you should get rid of ideological prejudices. Read the dictionaries and add value to your vocabulary. Check my examples! The language is larger than your limitatinos. Visit http//dictionary.reference.com/browse/exploitation, first meaning.

: Not in this context./Sorry to disappoint you but the word "Exploit" carries a very negative connotation meaning to "explore with an intent to take advantage"./http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/exploit[2]
