The willingness of tourism businesses to finance adaptation measures varies. Islands have developed building codes which consider impacts from SLR but these are often not enforced . In cases where tourist resorts have been part of climate adaptation projects, such as funding for hard coastal protection infrastructure, the resort owners find that these diminish the aesthetics of the beach destination . Adaptation taxes and levies imposed on tourism can provide funding  as The Environmental Protection and Tourism Improvement Fund Act, 2017 of British Virgin Islands shows . A lack of interaction between tourism and climate change decision makers is a commonly identified issue . A number of adaptation measures are recommended in the literature such as increasing climate change research, education and institutional capacities; product and market diversification away from coastal tourism to include terrestrial-based experiences and heritage tourism; and mainstreaming adaptation in tourism policies and vice versa  Thomas et al., 2020; van der Veeken et al., 2016).
