Receiving sea turtles is a protected endangered species, it is necessary to carry out conservation activities to protect and save sea turtles. To support efforts to support, it is necessary to support locations where turtles lay their eggs. Like discussing research on landing sites and turtle nesting sites. The purpose of this study was to analyze the level of suitability of habitat characteristics for turtle nesting in the Lunyuk beach area. The research method uses the survey method. Survey activities include field observations and collecting primary data. Data analysis was performed using the weighting and scoring method. Based on observations it can be seen, the slope of the beach which is the location of spawning is 6.54 - 11.1%, substrate temperature 27 ° C - 32 ° C, humidity substrate 25% - 40%. While the percentage of vegetation is 40% - 57.1%. From the station visit, stations 1 and 2 are quite suitable, while stations 3, 4 and 5 are categorized according to the location of turtle nesting.
