Résumé
The great tourism development of small tropical islands has threatened their sustainability. For developed countries, Tahiti is a myth and Tahitian tourism doesn’t use island patrimony (natural, social or cultural) except artificial beaches and lagoon beauty. A major problem is inadequate understanding of tourism dynamics and the absence of simple integrated measures of tourism's pervasive economic, social and environmental impacts. This paper presents the framework in which Tahitian tourism develops its characteristics and it proposes a space analysis method to evaluate its impacts. This method is applicable superficially with only one indicator to each element in the system (environmental, economical and social) or to go deeper into study with a lot of indicators to each element. This methodology must allow an integrated tourism management with others island activities and a sustainable tourism destination.
