Abstract

Coastal tourism industry grows very fast, so it is very potential to be used as an alternative business to increase the income and welfare of coastal communities. The development of an optimal tourism area requires good planning and management. This study assesses the suitability of land for coastal recreational tourism activities in Deaga Village, Southern Bolaang Mongondow Regency, by measuring the biophysical and supporting parameters at 8 observation stations on Deaga Beach, as well as the ecological carrying capacity of the environment calculated by considering the ecological potential of visitors. The results of the analysis of the suitability of tourism in Deaga Village are categorized as ‘very suitable’ for beach recreation activities with ecological carrying capacity that can accommodate 113 visitors per day. Thus, the coastal recreation tourism business in Deaga Village is very potential to be developed; and by paying attention to the ecological carrying capacity, this can be sustainable.
