Based on the Tourism Development Master Plan (RIPPDA) of Gunungkidul Regency, the Baron Region is an integrated area with functions in the education and tourism sector. The supported by the existence of the Baron Coast area as marine tourism and Baron Techno Park as an educational tourism. The study question here is: How the impact of the existence Baron tourism area on social-economic aspects of the community and land-use change? The problems that arise the development of Baron tourism area are the unintegrated development between tourism objects and the uneven economic impact, so the researchers want to examine the impact that the tourism area has on the economic aspects of the local community and land-use change. The research approach uses a quantitative approach with quantitative descriptive analysis and time series mapping analysis methods. The technique used is purposive sampling technique based on data sources obtained from primary data through field observations and interviews. The results of the research study show that the influence of tourism on economic aspects predominantly only occurs in Baron Beach. The influence is change in employment opportunities and shifts in types of work from fishers to tourist attraction businesses. The change in land use is indicated by development of attractions and businesses supporting the tourism sector, namely trade and services from recent years. While the influence of economic aspects for the business community in Baron Technopark is still minimal. It can be concluded that there has not been integration between attractions in the Baron Region on the improvement of the people’s economy. It is necessary to develop an integrated tourism area both in terms of spatial pattern and structure with integration marketing, distribution locations and connectivity between tourist objects.
