French Polynesia's tourism agency says it aims for a cap on visitor numbers in an updated strategy to make the industry sustainable.
Named Farira'a Manihini 2027, the plan is to establish Tahiti and its islands as a boutique destination and leader in slow tourism.
The new strategy is yet to be approved by the territorial assembly.
The head of Tahiti Tourisme Jean-Marc Mocellin said until today, there has always been talk of growth objectives, but this time, it is a question of setting a cap of 300,000 visitors a year.
He said the number is achievable but should not be exceeded in order to have a ratio of one tourist to one inhabitant.
The aim of the new approach is also to have visitors stay for longer and for them to meet the local population.
