Abstract

An outline of the characteristics of Antarctic tourism is given, including the growth in the number of tourists. The types of tourism are defined and described as (a) cruise ship tourism, with industry self-regulation, (b) adventure tourism, (c) land-based commercial tourism, (d) last chance tourism, (e) wildlife tourism, (f) unique environment tourism and (g) luxury tourism. The environmental impacts of Antarctic tourism are described in general, and specifically their effect on penguins; whale behavioural modification (noise and collisions); seals; invasion of non-indigenous organisms; and ship accidents and visitor impacts on historic and archaeological sites. There is discussion of how Antarctic tourism is managed: the role of the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO), governance and regulations, the Antarctic Treaty System, the Madrid Protocol, the Polar Code, difficulties in reaching agreement in a consensus-based system, lack of a gatekeeper mechanism and visitor rights.
