Abstract

The government of Indonesia has designated the Mandalika area as one of the 5 leading tourist destinations. Apart from its very beautiful nature, Mandalika has also become famous because of the construction of the Pertamina Mandalika International Circuit. With the construction of hotels and improvements to tourist facilities in Mandalika, it is hoped that it will increase tourists coming to Mandalika so that it can improve the community’s economy. However, with development and the large number of tourists coming, it is necessary to pay attention to environmental protection in Mandilika, especially the mangrove forests which buffer the coast and also live in various marine biota. Law number 32 of 2009 concerning environmental protection and management regulates the need to protect the environment from human activities. In Law Number 10 of 2009 concerning Tourism, it is also stated that one of the objectives of tourism is to “preserve nature, the environment and resources”. Apart from that, there are also regional regulations in NTB that regulate the environment which can be used to study the protection of mangrove forests in Mandalika. The research method was carried out in a normative juridical manner, namely analyzing existing regulations so that they can be implemented so that mangrove forests can be protected. Research results in Some mangrove forests in Mandalika are still protected and the government is also planting mangroves in collaboration with NGOs and the TNI, however, several areas of mangrove forests have been damaged due to the construction of roads for tourism-supporting infrastructure.
