This study aims to analyse the factors related to random blood glucose in people living in coastal tourism areas in BanyuwangiMethods: The study used a cross-sectional survey. A total of 112 respondents were recruited using the random sampling method, using two-stage cluster sampling techniques taken from the Head of household data in multiple villages.

People living in Bangsring had 31% higher random blood glucose compared to those in Buluagung.Conclusion: Local health care services should put extra effort into include men and those living in Bangsring in programs to prevent Diabetes Mellitus in coastal areas.
