No. There are several references in the article to 'this summer', the summer of 2023.

What does 'this is the summer of bad tourists' mean? Does it mean 'the summer of 2023 belongs to bad tourists'?

No. It means that this summer has seen a lot of examples of bad tourism. Have you actually read the article?

@Maybo People have always behaved badly. That's not new. Supposedly a lot of people who were cooped up during the pandemic are becoming too uninhibited.

Note that graffiti is not new. It's been going on since people have had things to write with and things to write on.
