Summary/Abstract: New Caledonia, located in the South Pacific, from 1853 remains under the authority of the French government. Although the economy of this territory is mainly based on the extraction of nickel, in the case of the Isle of Pines tourism plays a key role. Contemporary issues related to the development of the tourism industry on the island have to be referred to the very peculiar political, social and cultural context. In the article the author describes various aspects of the tourism activities in New Caledonia and analyzes the socio-political local situation in the context of custom and customary law.
