Abstract

This study aims to formulate a community-based ecotourism development strategy at Rombeng Pine Forest, Bonto Lojong Village, Bantaeng Regency, using a qualitative approach and SWOT analysis method. Data were collected through interviews with managers, local communities, and tourists, as well as field observations. The results indicate that the ecotourism quality in this area is still limited, especially regarding infrastructure and supporting facilities. This study proposes an amenity development model that involves community empowerment through skill training and the enhancement of sustainable tourism facilities. The impact of this model is expected to improve the quality of the tourist experience and provide more stable income for the local community. Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of sustainable ecotourism management, involving various stakeholders in planning and implementation. The implications of this research highlight the importance of developing policies that support community-based ecotourism and raising awareness of environmental conservation. This research also contributes to the development of knowledge in the field of ecotourism and offers recommendations for ecotourism managers in similar areas

Abstract

Abstract This research assesses the feasibility of Lantebung Tourism Village as a natural and educational tourism destination based on mangrove ecosystems. The main problem raised was the unoptimal utilization of natural potential as well as the limited infrastructure and supporting institutions. A qualitative approach was used through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation studies with purposive sampling techniques. The results showed that the village has educational tourism potential, such as mangrove trekking and utilization of mangrove-based local products. However, infrastructure such as tracking paths, toilets, and information facilities are inadequate, and the role of Pokdarwis has not been optimized. Local community support such as JEKOMALA and IKAL are quite active in environmental conservation, but still need capacity building and cross-sector collaboration. This study concludes that Lantebung Village has the feasibility to be developed as a sustainable tourism destination with a note of the need for infrastructure revitalization and institutional strengthening. Keywords: nature tourism, education, mangrove, infrastructure, institutions. Abstrak Penelitian ini menilai kelayakan Desa Wisata Lantebung sebagai destinasi wisata alam dan edukasi berbasis ekosistem mangrove. Permasalahan utama yang diangkat adalah pemanfaatan potensi alam yang belum optimal serta keterbatasan infrastruktur dan kelembagaan pendukungnya. Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan, dan studi dokumentasi dengan teknik purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa desa ini memiliki potensi wisata edukatif, seperti susur mangrove dan pemanfaatan produk lokal berbasis mangrove. Namun infrastruktur seperti jalur tracking, toilet, dan fasilitas informasi belum memadai, serta peran Pokdarwis belum berjalan optimal. Dukungan komunitas lokal seperti JEKOMALA dan IKAL cukup aktif dalam pelestarian lingkungan, namun masih memerlukan penguatan kapasitas dan kolaborasi lintas sektor. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Desa Lantebung memiliki kelayakan untuk dikembangkan sebagai destinasi wisata berkelanjutan dengan catatan perlunya revitalisasi infrastruktur dan penguatan kelembagaan. Kata kunci: wisata alam, edukasi, mangrove, infrastruktur, kelembagaan.

Abstract

Situmurun Waterfall, located in Jonggi Nihuta Village, Toba Regency, is one of the geosites within the UNESCO Global Geopark of Lake Toba, holding great potential as a natural tourist attraction. However, the management of this destination still faces several challenges, including damaged infrastructure, weak local institutions, and the absence of a structured business strategy. This study aims to analyze the internal and external conditions of Situmurun Waterfall management through SWOT analysis and to formulate a business model plan using the Business Model Canvas (BMC). The research employed a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews, and document review. The findings indicate that development strategies should focus on leveraging the natural uniqueness of the waterfall through digital promotion, enhancing local human resource capacity, improving supporting facilities, and strengthening multi-stakeholder collaboration. The integration of SWOT analysis into the nine elements of BMC resulted in an adaptive, applicable, and sustainable business model. Theoretically, this study contributes to the literature on applying BMC to natural tourist attractions, an area that remains underexplored. Practically, the results provide guidance for local governments, communities, and private partners in developing Situmurun Waterfall into an inclusive, competitive, and globally recognized destination.

Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze and identify the indirect role of the Makassar city government in the concepts of slow tourism and sustainable tourism in the Losari Waterfront Tourism Area. The study aims to identify the challenges in implementing slow tourism and sustainable tourism, followed by outlining effective policy planning strategies to support slow tourism and sustainable tourism in the Losari Waterfront Tourism Area, Makassar City. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative descriptive research method. The data collection techniques for this qualitative research involve the researcher interacting directly through observation, interviews, and literature reviews from journals or related documents. The research results indicate that the Makassar City Government, through the Tourism Office, has indirectly supported the implementation of the slow tourism concept, where the elements of attractions, facilities, and accessibility are already quite good. However, there are still challenges to be overcome if the concept of slow tourism and sustainable tourism is to be officially implemented. Therefore, to implement this concept, a policy roadmap is needed that gradually outlines the implementation of slow tourism in the Losari Beach tourist area, Makassar City.

Abstract

The utilization of mangrove ecotourism potential in Tanjung Rejo Tourism Village has not been optimal despite the support of abundant natural resources and local wisdom, thus necessitating an integrated business model with the natural‐dye batik creative economy. This study aims to evaluate that integration within the Business Model Canvas (BMC) framework and to formulate development strategies through SWOT analysis. The method employed is a case study with data collected via semi-structured interviews with community members, tourism stakeholders, batik artisans, and village officials during April–May 2025, participatory observation, and document review. The analysis maps the nine BMC building blocks and applies indicators of Strength (internal strengths: skilled human resources and mangrove potential), Opportunity (external opportunities: government policies and ecotourism market interest), Weakness (limitations in basic infrastructure and digital marketing capacity), and Threats (destination competition and climate change impacts). The results indicate that Tanjung Rejo Village falls into the SO quadrant, with five BMC blocks—particularly Value Propositions, Key Resources, and Customer Segments—already established, while Channels and Customer Relationships still  require  reinforcement.  The  study  concludes  that  the  integration  of  mangrove  ecotourism  and  the natural-dye batik creative economy is underway but not yet optimal, and it offers practical guidance for other tourism villages adopting a creative ecotourism-based BMC. Strategic recommendations include enhancing infrastructure, providing digital marketing training, developing integrated tour packages, and forming Tourism Awareness Groups (Pokdarwis) to strengthen community participation and sustain partnership.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze community involvement in the management of Tanjung Rejo Tourism Village and to formulate empowerment strategies to enhance participation in community-based tourism development. Although the village holds great potential through its extensive mangrove ecosystem, local participation remains low. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through observation, in- depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model as well as a SWOT matrix. The findings reveal that limited community involvement is due to a lack of information, training, and access to resources. Recommended empowerment strategies include continuous training, strengthening local institutions  such  as  BUMDes  and  tourism  awareness  groups,  and  fostering  collaboration  with  external stakeholders. This study is expected to serve as a reference for developing more inclusive andsustainable tourism village policies.

Abstract

This study explores the potential of natural resources as a driver of local economic development in Lantebung Tourism Village, Makassar, South Sulawesi. Using a qualitative method involving interviews, observations, and document analysis, the research examines how the mangrove ecosystem supports sustainable tourism initiatives. Findings indicate that the mangrove forest plays a dual role as an ecological asset and a tourist attraction, contributing to increased community income. However, community participation remains limited, with active involvement found only in a few areas such as ticketing and parking services. The former community-based initiatives like Pokdarwis and mangrove crab cultivation have become inactive due to limited awareness, training, and funding. The study recommends revitalizing community institutions, establishing structured capacity-building programs, and creating funding mechanisms through partnerships. The research contributes to the understanding of how nature-based tourism can drive local economies and highlights the importance of empowerment for sustainability.
