Abstract

Mangrove ecotourism is a type of ecologically friendly tourism where the focus is on the natural beauty of the mangroves and the local animals. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Petengoran mangrove ecotourism index of tourist suitability and integrated coastal management of supporting infrastructure. As an outcome, the findings of this study ought to be able to clearly describe if a location and its infrastructure are suitable for tourism. The steps of the study process involve geographical analysis, determining the adequacy of supporting infrastructure for ecotourism regions, and determining the suitability of mangrove ecotourism utilizing the transect route approach. According to calculations, the carrying capacity of the mangrove tourism area was calculated to be 137 persons / day, and the supporting infrastructure, which includes roads, asphalt, mosques, restrooms, gazebos, and food stands, is suggested. The comparisons made need to be taken into account for development and conservation in the Petengoran mangrove area, including the addition of mangrove plant species that aren’t already there and the organization of organized plants beginning with the smallest mangrove species, in order to improve this area and boost the number of tourists visiting the Mangrove Area. The resulting conclusion is that the category (S2), which is being developed into a mangrove tourism region, was selected based on the suitability index value. Planning for the integrated mangrove area has been done based on the suggested supporting infrastructure requirements.
