Abstract:

Tourists were a mixed blessing: one part welcoming, one part wary. Welcoming entailed sharing sand and surf with those sunbathing and fishing. Wariness came from some visitors leaving trash and trespass in their wake. It also came from some others bring preconceptions about the natives and assumption that city creature comforts are available.
