Summary: | The Munakata coastal area, characterized by its aesthetic landscapes is one of the case studies for promoting the development of local integrated coastal management (ICM) initiatives in Japan. The formulation of the Munakata ICM program and the implementation of two primary activities on resource use conflicts related to coastal tourism and recreational use are discussed in this paper. Results from a questionnaire survey on rules for coordinating and alleviating use-related conflicts are also presented.
