Abstract

Sumbawa Island is a tourist destination because it offers still well-preserved natural beauty. Semongkat geotourism is one of the tour sites visited by many local or foreign tourists located in the north of Batulanteh District, Sumbawa Regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province (Coordinate Latitude -8.574251° SL, Longitude 117.313315° EL), including a hilly area with an altitude of 450 meters above sea level, densely-forested, and well-preserved maintained area. The area is an ecosystem rich in flora and fauna, including the bondol eagle and the koakiau bird which are endangered and protected by law. The problem is that lots of landslides still occur on the access to the area, posing thus risks to passengers and motorists. The data collection method used is to mapping landslide-prone areas with controlling and driving aspects, then make a landslide-prone map to show which areas are categorized as landslide-prone areas. It is important, therefore, to map landslide-prone areas so that mitigation measures can be implemented to ensure a safer life for local people and tourists, a better environment and ecosystem as well as a safer, and also increased geotourism in Semongkat.

Abstract

Lambu District of Bima Regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province has three extraordinary geological features that can potentially be developed into geotourism objects: Pulau Kelapa, Tanjung Meriam, and Pantai Pink. These three objects can be accessed by water transportation. Pulau Kelapa is a geomorphological feature in the form of crescent-shaped hills. The land use as savanna with views of small island cluster resulted from volcanic activities, and can be observed from the top of the hills. Tanjung Meriam forms a headland morphology protruding towards the beach, composed of andesitic-basaltic igneous rocks in the form of columnar joints that extended spectacularly along the coastline. Tanjung Meriam is said to be the only largest columnar joint site in Indonesia that is still pristine and does not undergo any shape changes by human activities. The pink color of the sand at Pantai Pink is caused by the pigment of decomposed foraminifers that formed sand grains stretching along the beach area. In addition, the clean and clear sea water complements the beauty and aesthetics of the beach. Geologically, the area is made of by the Layered Limestone Formation (Tml) and Old Volcano Products (QTvs). Geomorphosite assessment for geotourism purpose, according to Kubalikova (2013), showed that the feasibility value of Pulau Kelapa, Tanjung Meriam and Pantai Pink is 57.91%, 51.66% and 51,66% respectively. Tourism development in this area is still limited to individual visits; yet to be managed further by the local government while at the same time the potential is enormous. Therefore, planning is needed to develop geotourism potential by considering scientific and educational (geology, biology and local culture) and tourism values for sustainable development
