The tourism sector of the economy of the Marshall Islands is not developed. The number of tourists arriving in the country is small compared to other countries in Micronesia. Mostly tourists visit the island of Majuro. The development of tourism is negatively affected by the high cost of flying to the islands and underdeveloped infrastructure.
The considerable remoteness from each other of the islands of the country determined the skill of the people in fishing and the construction of canoes, which are able to overcome considerable distances. The Marshallese themselves are excellent navigators who have learned to navigate by the stars, clouds, currents, birds and the color of the ocean.
The country has never participated in the Winter Olympics; at the Summer Olympics, the Marshall Islands were first represented at the 2008 Games (Beijing).
