Abstract

Ecotourism is an activity that focuses on nature conservation, environmental sustainability and local community empowerment.

The interviewed guides were 26 people, and distributing questionnaire to 50 tourists. This study found that the types of interpretations that are used by Tahura Ngurah Rai tour guides and HPI are 9 types, interpretation facilities that are used by Tahura Ngurah Rai tour guides are 15 facilities and HPI as many as 15 facilities. The interpretation quality of Tahura Ngurah Rai tour guides was good (score 77%) and HPI tour guides was also good (score 75%). The tourist's satisfaction was excellent (score 84.4%).

Abstract

Mangrove memiliki keanekaragaman spesies tumbuhan atau vegetasi yang terdiri dari vegetasi mangrove sejati dan mangrove asosiasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui Komposisi spesies tumbuhan mangrove dan keanekaragaman tumbuhan mangrove. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode kwadrat pada dua stasiun, yaitu stasiun 1 (mangrove alami) dan stasiun 2 (mangrove reboisasi). Komposisi spesies ditentukan dengan indek nilai penting (INP) dan keanekaragaman menggunakan indek diversitas Shanon-Wiener. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komposisi jenis mangrove sebanyak 11 jenis, yang terdiri dari 4 jenis adalah mangrove sejati dan 7 spesies mangrove asosiasi. Spesies mangrove yang mendominasi adalah Sonneratia alba (INP=126,16%) dan Rhizophora mucronata (INP=108,18%). Struktur vegetasi terdiri dari tiga kategori yaitu pohon, pancang dan semai. Pada tingkat pohon didominasi oleh Sonneratia alba (INP:175,0%), pada tingkat pancang didominasi oleh Rhizophora mucronata (INP: 191,60%) dan pada tingkat semai didominasi oleh jenis Rhizophora mucronata (INP: 221,76%). Indek keanekaragaman vegetasi sebesar 1,47 dan nilai indek kemerataan sebesar 0,61, hal ini mengindikasikan bahwa kondisi mangrove pada kawasan mangrove di kawasan Kampoeng Kepiting termasuk kategori mantap/stabil.
