Abstract

Prajak is crowned as the top 300 tourist villages at the 2022 Indonesian tourism village award. Prajak is a hamlet located in the Saleh Bay cluster, Sumbawa, so development in this area is directed as a marine tourism area. Even though it is named a tourist village, the tourism conditions in Prajak are still not optimal and have not been developed properly. The condition of the beach is still natural, but the lack of public awareness of tourism opportunities and the inadequate infrastructure of existing tourism infrastructure have resulted in marine tourism in prajak is not yet known by the public. In addition, the main problem is the rampant illegal fishing which has an impact on the destruction of coral reefs, the reduction of fishermen's catches, and the threat to fish sustainability. Therefore, the development of non-extractive, non-consumptive, and sustainable natural resources needs to be prioritized in the field of tourism so that marine ecotourism is the main choice. This study aims to design an appropriate marine ecotourism zoning in Prajak Sumbawa area based on its ecological potential, analyze the feasibility of community-based marine ecotourism, and create a community-based marine ecotourism management strategy in Prajak, Sumbawa Regency.

Abstract

Geotourism concept utilizes all aspects of geology, with the scope of abiotic elements such as landscapes, rocks, minerals, fossils, soil, water, and processes, including geological history. In the Ulubelu area, there is potential for geothermal energy resources which is managed by Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE). In that area, there are already a Green Lake tourist destination and the potential of a coffee-plantation directly related to the community empowerment programs from PGE. Therefore, in an effort to optimize the program, research is carried out to study the potential of geotourism and destination branding strategies that can be carried out on the basis of a study of marketing- as well as environmental communications. The research was conducted in Ulubelu from July to November 2022, using the case study method. The results of the temporary study produce preliminary data that there is potential to integrate the existence of geothermal energy and coffee-plantation to be formed as geotourism objects through community-based tourism (CBT) model.

Abstract

The development of a halal tourism village requires the role of youth social capital to ensure the sustainability of its tourism management. The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the role of youth social capital in the development of halal tourism in tourist villages. This research was conducted in Setanggor Tourism Village, West Praya District, Central Lombok using a qualitative method of content analysis. Data was carried out by means of observation, documentation, and in-depth interviews with tourism managers in Setanggor Village.The results of this study indicate that there are several important elements that shape youth social capital, namely, social trust, self-help, collaboration, and social networks. The element of social trust is the main locomotive for encouraging youth to participate, such as: having a common identity as a Muslim who adheres to Islamic values, having an Islamic (culture) behavior, and both come from the same village. These social trust values serve as the basis for youth in increasing other elements of social capital. In an effort to maximize the strengthening of youth social capital in tourist villages, it is necessary 1) to have a meeting agenda between youth and adults in improving the quality of services such as politeness, hospitality, greetings, full of smiles, and humility of the community in serving tourists, smooth communication and information needed by tourists; 2) there is space for youth to show their existence and creativity; 3) the need for collaborative work between youth and adults through mentoring/training programs to improve the optimization of the role of youth social capital in managing and developing rural tourism. Therefore, strengthening youth social capital should be one of the strategic efforts in the context of developing sustainable halal tourism in tourist villages.

Abstract

The Bandung Highlands and its surrounding areas (BHLs) are rich in important geodiversity and geoheritage sites because of its values. They are of knowledge value, educational value, environmental value, cultural value, economic value, and others. An important one is the value of tradition in the form of legend, in this case the Sangkuriang in the Sunda community - the majority of the population is in BHLs - even in the archipelago. All of them have made the BHLs area an important geotourism destination in West Java. Meanwhile, the development of a new sub-discipline called "geomythology" provides an opportunity to make the Sangkuriang legend important. In this paper, a study is conducted on the Sangkuring legend as a form of geomythology that is popular among the BHLs people, even throughout the West Java province. Aspects of geomythology as a branch of science in the Sangkuriang legend are dissected and related to the events of the formation of BHLs and some of the mountains that surround it, ancient Bandung Lake, and important geological outcrops in it. The results of the study found that the names and sequences of events in the Sangkuriang legend matched with the geographical names and geological history of the formation of BHLs and their environment. People often associate various natural phenomena in BHLs with these legends. This is seen from the point of view of public education in geotourism is very important. Furthermore, the legend has also been interpreted with and by hermeneutic approach where the results enrich the narrative of interpretation in geotourism (geo-interpretation) in BHLs.

Abstract

Nusa Penida Island is one of the leading tourist destinations in Bali Province. Tourist destinations on the Island consist of various types of beaches, hills, caves to unique landscapes formed due to the karstification process. Nusa Penida Island is geologically composed of limestones (the Selatan Formation) with various types such as clastic limestones and coral limestones(Hadiwidjojo et al, 1998). In addition to the unique geology of Nusa Penida Island, it also has archaeological uniqueness. The Gede Cave shows that Nusa Penida was once inhabited by prehistoric humans (Abdillah, 2011). During the COVID-19 pandemic, tourism seems to be forced to accelerate and requires new tourist attraction innovations that support sustainable tourism. This research discusses geotourism-based tourist attractions that can be developed and explored in Nusa Penida. The approach used is geological diversity inventory method (Geological Agency, 2017). Primary data was obtained through survey activities. From the research carried out, it can be concluded that 10 geological site locations in the Nusa Penida area have the potential to be developed as areas with geotourism attractions, which offer unique geology, especially regarding karts landscape processes and one of the key geological history on the island of Bali. In addition, Nusa Penida Island has the potential to be developed as a geopark as an effort to develop sustainable tourism in Klungkung Regency.

Abstract

Buleleng Regency, located in North Bali, has geological potential that can be developed into geotourism. There are dozens of waterfalls in Buleleng Regency, several caves that have their own uniqueness, and a beautiful hill stretching on the north side in the West Buleleng part. This paper aims to provide information about the potential of geotourism that can be packaged into a tour package in the form of a geoventure with the attractions visited are Sudaji Cave, Aling-aling Waterfall, Tembok Barak Waterfall, and Bukit Kursi Temple. The approach used is qualitative research with the geological diversity inventory method. Primary data was obtained through survey activities and direct observations in the field. From the research conducted, these four tourist attractions are geologically unique and can present an adventure exploring nature and is accompanied by knowledge of the landscape and culture of Buleleng. This geotourism activity targets those with a special interest in nature and culture, both domestic and foreign. The "geoventure" tour package starts from the East to the West, including the Sudaji Cave in Sudaji Village, then proceeds to Sambangan Village to enjoy and observe the Aling-aling Waterfall and the Barak Wall Waterfall, and then head to Bukit Kursi Temple. The travel time of the geoventure is estimated at more than seven hours so that packages can be made in the form of half-day tours.

Abstract

Sumbawa is famous for its marine tourism, apart from the beauty of its beaches, Sumbawa also has marine fauna that attracts the attention of tourists, namely whale sharks. It is recorded that there are around 99 species of Whale Sharks located in Saleh Bay, Sumbawa. Thus, making Saleh Bay the location with the second largest whale shark population in Indonesia and UNESCO designated Saleh Bay as part of the SAMOTA biosphere reserve. Currently, whale sharks have protected fauna according to the decree of the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries No. 18 of 2013. This is due to the pollution of whale shark habitats by pollutants including garbage and microplastics. In addition, the Overexploitation of whale sharks is some of the causes of the significant decline in whale shark populations. Marine ecotourism activities in the form of exhibiting Whale Sharks to tourists can be an alternative way of sustainable use because it has minimal impact on individual Whale Sharks, in addition, marine ecotourism activities can also provide economic benefits to the Sumbawa community and regional development including supporting efforts to protect and preserve the whale shark fauna. The Study "Community-Based Whale Shark Conservation to Strengthen Marine Tourism Management in Sumbawa “aims to present a blue economy model for coastal communities in Sumbawa and increase community participation in conservation activities, as well as improve the welfare of coastal communities in Sumbawa.

Abstract

In the geotourism program and destination, as the scope of the meaning of geotourism from the experts, it is possible to have other recreational activities that take advantage of the program and the destination area. Both require the importance of conservation and respect for nature and local values in the destination area. Even in geotourism activities carried out in geopark areas, the other recreation can be in the form of activities that support the 10 main program areas in geoparks, as well as the activities in the context of achieving the “Sustainable Development Goals” (SDGs). One other recreation that meets these criteria is health tourism. Thus, instead of being contradicted, between geotourism and health tourism it is very possible to be combined and carried out in one agenda simultaneously with complementary each other. This paper examines an experience of combining the application of one part of health tourism with geotourism travel, hereinafter referred to as getwell tourism program. The location of the application of the getwell tourism is the Papandayan area, an important and well-known geotourism destination in West Java. Aspects of site selection are underlined, as well as the determination of the appropriate health tourism program for the location. In the Papandayan geotourism program, health tours are carried out in the form of earthing, forest therapy, pranayama, and soaking in hot springs. The results were evaluated with the wellness program that had been carried out in Kuningan, West Java and the responses from the participants. It was found that the two types of tourism complement each other and some suggestions for improvement. Thus, getwell tourism is not only possible, it can be applied in almost all geotourism and geopark destinations. Health tourism enriches geotourism and vice versa, and both implementations can be combined in the getwell tourism program.

Abstract

Palangpang Beach is one of the popular locations in the Ciletuh-Palabuhanratu Geopark Area. This location has the potential for a tsunami because it is located at the southern coast of West Java and faces the southern subduction zone of Java. In addition, there are several active underwater faults that have the potential to trigger tsunamis, including the Cimandiri and Palabuharatu fault zones. The study discusses the simulation of tsunami inundation that can occur at Palangpang Beach. The estimation of the tsunami inundation zone is calculated with several variables, namely the roughness coefficient, the coastal morphology slope, and the tsunami's estimated run up. Imagery from the UAV can provide a more detailed picture of the roughness coefficient and slope of the beach. Based on calculations, it shows that Palangpang beach has a distant tsunami inundation zone, so that the area affected will be quite large. The tsunami inundation model can be used to create tsunami susceptibility zones and can be used to plan effective evacuation route.
