<![CDATA[In the global travel industry, coastal tourism has become one of the most dynamically growing sectors. Purpose of this study is to find the cultural link between coastal communities and foreign tourists through the cultural tourism sector to understand how the role of coastal communities cultural values affects the satisfaction and experience of foreign tourists, through changes in interaction patterns, cultural adaptations, and social dynamics that occur on the coast. As well as understanding how coastal communities respond and adapt to global cultural influences from foreign tourists. This study uses a literature review method, in which data are obtained from various journal articles and books related to the theme of this research. The theory used in this study is Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory, which is quite relevant to understanding how foreign tourists experience and even interpret the culture of coastal communities. The study proved that the coastal culture shown by foreign tourists is a complex dual process characterized by the interaction of tourists and local communities. The conclusion resulted in two conceptual models regarding the fortress of local traditions and the cycle of reclamation of the local coastal mortification cycle that explain the mechanisms and critical points of coastal cultural dynamics.]]>
