  abstract = {{W}allis, {A}lofi, and {F}utuna are three small islands in the central {P}acific {O}cean, characterized by different reef geomorphologies. {F}ollowing a request from the local {E}nvironment {S}ervice, we developed an indicative conservation plan for each island with two objectives: (1) representing 20% of the extent of each coral reef habitat within no-take areas while (2) keeping all subsistence fishing grounds open for extraction. {T}he first objective was more ambitious than the current {C}onvention on {B}iological {D}iversity ({A}ichi) targets. {W}e found that both objectives could not be achieved simultaneously and that large compromises are needed. {D}ue to the small size of these islands, and the dependence of local communities on coral reef resources, the fishery objective significantly limited the extent of most habitats available for conservation. {T}he problem is exacerbated if the conservation plan uses larger conservation units and more complex habitat typologies. {O}ur results indicate that international conservation guidelines should be carefully adapted to small {P}acific islands and that incentives to make feasible the necessary reductions in available fishing grounds will probably be needed.},
