This study aims to identify the character’s values which live in the students of elementary school in coastal tourism area, hence these values can be the source of information in formulating policies of education at school or local governments to put the model of character education which are suitable for student of elementary school in coastal areas. This research is a qualitative research using case study approach. The researcher identifies the prominent character values which have not been seen in the majority of students. The results of this study indicate that creative and loving the environment are prominent characters of the students of elementary school in the coastal tourism area. In the other hand the character of discipline, independence, responsibility, and politeness are the characters which tend to be seen in them. The level of prominent character is getting higher while the less values are getting worse along with the rising of the grade level of students.
