A destination is a place that is visited with significant time during a tour, which can be in the form of natural attractions such as mountains, lakes, rivers, beaches, sea, or in the form of building objects. Simalungun Regency is an area that has attractive and beautiful tourism potential to be used as a tourist location. Every year there is an increase in tourist arrivals from various regions. However, obstacles were found for new tourists related to the lack of information to recommend tourist destinations that suit their needs in terms of time, distance and cost. This situation results in increasing confusion for tourists in determining the choice of halal tourist destinations according to the desired criteria. Based on these conditions, it is necessary to design a Decision Support System (SPK) that can assist tourists in finding halal tourism locations. The application built is a system that is packaged in determining halal tourist destinations so that it can provide recommendations to find out which tours are the leading destinations. The calculation results show that the Bah Butong Tea Garden tour is a recommendation for tourist destinations with a final value of 0.21. The purpose of this study is to apply the EDAS Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution method in selecting halal tourist destinations that comply with predetermined criteria. Decision support systems are the right solution needed to solve these problems. The EDAS method is a selection method based on the normalized values ??of the weights and distances of positive and negative solutions. The evaluation process using the EDAS method provides an evaluation level that is accurate and faster in the calculation process
