Abstract

Mass tourism, which may lead to environmental problems, cultural and social degradation, distortion of economic benefits and disease, particularly in poorer countries, provides financial reasons for preserving cultural, historical and natural resources or traditions, which otherwise may be neglected. Vanuatu, is a less developed country (LDC), reliant on tourism for such benefits. Therefore, this study focuses on identifying the views of local residents and the impact on their lifestyles and perceptions of Australian tourist expectations. Analysis revealed that most Ni Vanuatu want tourism development on Espiritu Santo and Tangoa Island, as it hasn’t yet impacted on their traditional lifestyle. They were concerned about improved road needs, accommodation and tourist attractions.
