太平洋岛国的海洋产业和海洋管理独具特色。海洋渔业发展平稳，海产品产量逐步增加；部分太平洋岛国尝试重开边境，努力在公共卫生与依赖旅游业的经济复苏之间寻求平衡；各方对深海采矿的态度仍存在明显分歧，对海洋生态系统的环境影响是各方共同关切点，瑙鲁和库克群岛等岛国支持开采。海洋金融作为新兴事物支持太平洋地区海洋可持续发展，太平洋岛国呼吁绿色气候基金、全球环境基金、适应基金等全球融资机构增加在海洋及气候变化领域的投资。2021年，太平洋岛国积极提升海洋治理水平，主要举措包括持续加强环境问题研究、通过发布《2021年太平洋岛国论坛领导人海洋声明》提升区域合作水平、在气候变化情境下加强海域保护等。
Marine industries and marine management in Pacific islands are unique. As the marine fishery has saw stable growth，the seafood output has increased gradually；some Pacific islands countries are now seeking to reopen their borders and finding a balance between the public health and the resuscitating of economy that relies heavily on tourism；although the parties concerned still have obvious disputes over deep-sea mining，and the environmental impacts of the marine ecosystems remain their major concerns，such islands as Nauru and the Cook Islands support exploitation. Marine finance，as a newly emerged concept，has been supporting the sustainable marine development of the Pacific region. The Pacific islands call for investment in the marine and climate change fields by global financing institutions such as the Green Climate Fund，the Global Environment Facility，and the Adaptation Fund. In 2021，the Pacific islands actively improved marine governance through continuously increasing the investment in research of environmental issues，enhancing regional cooperation by releasing the Pacific Islands Forum Leaders Ocean Statement 2021，and strengthening marine protection in the context of climate change，etc.
