Abstract
The mangrove ecosystem, found in coastal wetlands, has a particularly unique natural resource potential. Its biodiversity provides vital ecosystem services to local populations. However, rising environmental degradation has resulted in policy efforts, particularly to protect coastal mangroves in the Sungsang-Sembilang region through tourist development projects. The purpose of this study is to examine how people see the potential of environmental power in the Sungsang-Sembilang mangrove area as it prepares to become an ecotourism destination. Data collection utilized a questionnaire design on numerous societal factors such as age, gender, occupations, and economic income. Data from questionnaires were examined using chi-square to discover factors with a connection (p-value 0.05), and then data were evaluated using SWOT analysis to establish best policy plan for growing ecotourism in Sungsang-Sembilang mangrove region. Community characteristics such as age, occupation, and economic income had been found to be related to perceptions of the carrying capacity of the environment in Sungsang-Sembilang mangrove area as an ecotourism area (p-value 0.05), whereas gender characteristics had no relationship (p-value > 0.05). Based on these findings, Sungsang-Sembilang mangrove region should be developed as an ecotourism destination with many policy options that are in line with the environmental circumstances shown by this study.
