2025-06-12T22:17:28+07:00

This study discusses the development stage of Blimbingsari Beach, a coastal tourism destination in Banyuwangi Regency, Indonesia, using the Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) model formulated by Butler. Blimbingsari Beach, renowned for its grilled fish culinary tourism product, has experienced fluctuations in tourist visits from year to year, culminating in a drastic decline after 2019, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative descriptive approach was used by combining primary data from interviews and observations with secondary data in the form of online reviews and tourism reports. The analysis of the interactive model approach includes the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that Blimbingsari Beach is currently at the "Development" stage in the TALC model. This phenomenon is evident in the increase in visits during the peak season, the active involvement of the government and local community, and ongoing promotions through social media platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. The existence of easily accessible tourism facilities and transportation infrastructure also strengthens this classification. This study offers strategic guidance to stakeholders on achieving sustainable tourism development, enhancing service quality, and enhancing the overall appeal of Blimbingsari.

Gua Tengkorak is a unique natural tourist attraction located in Kasungai Village, Paser Regency, East Kalimantan. This study aims to identify and analyze the tourism potential that can be developed in Gua Tengkorak as a leading tourist destination in Paser Regency. The research used a quantitative descriptive approach, with data collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The tourism potential was assessed using the 2003 Natural Tourism Object and Attraction Operational Area Analysis (ADO-ODTWA) guidelines from the Directorate General of PHKA. The results show that Gua Tengkorak has interesting natural tourism potential, including unique stalactite and stalagmite formations and historical value due to the presence of human skulls in the cave. Based on the analysis of attraction, accessibility, accommodation, and facilities factors, a total average score of 496.25 was obtained, indicating that Gua Tengkorak has “fairly potential” category for development. The attraction and accessibility aspects scored very high, but accommodation and supporting facilities scored low. The main challenges in developing Gua Tengkorak tourism are the limited supporting facilities, the absence of accommodation in Kasungai Village, and road access that needs improvement. Therefore, efforts from the local government, community, and private sector are needed to enhance promotion, infrastructure, and facilities in order to make Gua Tengkorak a sustainable and competitive tourist destination.

HALAL TOURISM: ENHANCING MUSLIM TRAVEL EXPERIENCE BRIDGING FAITH AND TRAVEL (SUSTAINABLE, SMART AND MUSLIM-FRIENDLY MALANG TOURISM DESTINATIONS)

2025-12-17T23:09:35+07:00

The rapid escalation of the global halal tourism industry has necessitated a strategic transformation in destination governance within Muslim-majority nations. This study examines the dynamics of halal tourism development in Malang City, East Java, which is increasingly positioning itself as a premier Muslim-friendly destination in Southeast Asia. Departing from the extant literature that predominantly focuses on consumer behavior (demand-side), this research adopts a qualitative-descriptive approach to dissect the supply-side perspective, encompassing public policy integration, infrastructural readiness, and stakeholder participation within a mid-sized urban ecosystem. Through data triangulation - utilizing secondary data from regional strategic planning documents (RPJMD) and field observations of culinary and religious tourism clusters - this study reveals that the "Malang Halal" vision has been formally institutionalized as a strategic pillar within "The Future of Malang" development roadmap. The findings indicate the effectiveness of a collaborative model involving the local government, academia, through Halal Center assistance, and the business community in accelerating product certification and providing representative public worship facilities. While Malang offers an adaptive and promising tourism ecosystem framework, the sector's long-term sustainability demands strategic intensification in digital visibility, cross-regional infrastructure integration, and the strengthening of international branding to capture a broader global market.

Pasir Pataya is a natural tourist destination located in Ciakar Village, Cibeureum District, Tasikmalaya City. Despite its potential for scenic hill landscapes and cool air, the area's development remains community-based and has yet to be managed professionally.

The research employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through field observations, interviews with local managers, and documentation studies. The findings indicate that limitations in infrastructure, promotion, and institutional support are the main obstacles. Meanwhile, the area's natural beauty and the enthusiasm of the local community serve as key assets for development. Based on a SWOT analysis, proposed strategies include strengthening the management institution, improving road access, providing tourism facilities, and enhancing digital promotion. These recommendations are expected to increase tourist visits and contribute economically to the surrounding community.

DAMPAK FREKUENSI EKSPOSUR ANIME TERHADAP MINAT KUNJUNGAN WISATAWAN INDONESIA

2025-12-17T23:25:39+07:00

The massive popularity of anime in Indonesia has established Japanese Pop Culture Tourism as a significant phenomenon. This research is crucial due to the lack of specific quantitative exploration on how the frequency of exposure to non-live-action media (anime) affects Indonesian tourists' intention to visit, especially given the significant surge in post-pandemic visits. The main objective is to measure this causal relationship. This study employed a quantitative approach using Purposive Sampling and collected data through an online questionnaire using a Likert scale from Indonesian citizens who are anime fans. Data was processed using SPSS version 25, involving classical assumption tests and concluding with a simple linear regression analysis. The findings indicate that the frequency of anime exposure has a positive and significant influence on Indonesian tourists' intention to visit Japan, accounting for approximately $48.2\%$ of the variation in travel intention. Frequent exposure strengthens Parasocial Interaction (PSI), triggering pilgrimage motivation (Seichi Junrei) and effectively translating fantasy into concrete travel plans. It is concluded that anime exposure frequency is a substantial predictor of travel intention. Tourism stakeholders are advised to leverage this data in formulating content-based marketing strategies. Future research is suggested to formally test the role of PSI as a mediating variable.

EKOWISATA BERBASIS KELEMBAGAAN: STRATEGI PENCAPAIAN SDGS 16 “PERDAMAIAN, KEADILAN, DAN KELEMBAGAAN YANG TANGGUH" DI KAWASAN MANGROVE MENTAWIR, KECAMATAN SEPAKU

Community-based ecotourism in the Mangrove Mentawir area, Sepaku District, holds a strategic position in supporting sustainable development, particularly as a buffer zone for the new capital city (IKN). This study aims to analyze the role of local institutions in ecotourism governance and to identify practices aligned with the principles of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16, namely peace, justice, and strong institutions. The research applied a deductive qualitative approach, employing in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews as data collection techniques. Data were analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods with a focus on stakeholder mapping, including identification, profiling, role modeling, and inter-actor relationships. The findings indicate that Pokdarwis Tiram Tambun serves as the primary actor in ecotourism management; however, the sustainability of its activities remains highly dependent on central figures and external institutional support. Secondary stakeholders such as PT Inhutani, Mentawir Village Administration, and the Penajam Paser Utara Tourism Office contribute to the process, though their roles remain partial and not yet firmly institutionalized. These findings highlight the importance of multi-stakeholder forums, community capacity building, and inclusive participation to strengthen ecotourism governance. Strengthening local institutions in Mentawir is therefore not only relevant for the sustainability of the local destination but also significant in supporting the development of a resilient, just, and sustainable IKN buffer zone.
