Abstract Tourism in the (former) Dutch Caribbean (Suriname and the six islands formerly known as the Antilles) did not develop into a significant sector until well after the Second World War. There are hardly any sources that discuss facts other than economic ones. The nature of tourism is rarely if ever mentioned; every uncomfortable link with colonial times has been scrupulously avoided. By comparing what has been written about the 1960s and 1970s and later, and with a tour of the main museums, this article maps out how the character of tourism is slowly changing towards a more ethical ecotourism.
