Ekowisata mangrove dapat menghubungkan konservasi pesisir, pendidikan lingkungan, dan peluang ekonomi lokal, tetapi pengembangannya memerlukan dasar ilmiah mengenai kondisi ekologi, kesesuaian kawasan, serta dukungan masyarakat. Penelitian ini menilai potensi ekowisata mangrove di Desa Kumu, Kecamatan Tombariri, Kabupaten Minahasa, Sulawesi Utara. Survei deskriptif kuantitatif dilaksanakan pada Mei-Agustus 2026 melalui pengamatan vegetasi mangrove, pengukuran parameter biofisik, inventarisasi visual biota asosiasi, serta wawancara terstruktur menggunakan kuesioner terhadap 30 responden yang dipilih secara purposif. Vegetasi dianalisis berdasarkan komposisi jenis, kerapatan, frekuensi, dan penutupan. Potensi ekowisata dinilai menggunakan Indeks Kesesuaian Wisata, sedangkan respons masyarakat dianalisis menggunakan skala Likert lima tingkat. Ditemukan empat jenis mangrove dengan total 76 individu. Rhizophora apiculata memiliki kelimpahan dan kerapatan tertinggi, sedangkan Sonneratia alba menunjukkan penutupan tertinggi. Nilai Indeks Kesesuaian Wisata sebesar 2,36 menempatkan kawasan dalam kategori sesuai. Respons masyarakat positif terhadap manfaat ekonomi (84%), kesiapan pengembangan (82%), dukungan masyarakat (81%), dan dukungan pemerintah (84%), tetapi aksesibilitas dan infrastruktur hanya mencapai 45%. Desa Kumu menyediakan dasar awal bagi pengembangan ekowisata mangrove berbasis konservasi. Pengembangan perlu memprioritaskan pengaturan arus pengunjung, penjadwalan berdasarkan pasang surut, fasilitas interpretasi berdampak rendah, pembagian peran pengelolaan yang disepakati masyarakat, serta pemantauan ekologi dan sosial secara berkala.
