Abstrak: Ecotourisms are leisure activities that focused on natural tourisms in ~ervation area that contribute to local inhibitant wealthy and education. The alflS of this research were to conserve the endemic of aquatic organisms (jellyfish alld other fish species),and appropriate parameters such as water transparancy, 1+ depth and substrates to formule the strategic development for ecotourism in tIS lake of Kakaban Island, Berau District, East Kalimantan. This research was c~ucted in April to May 2009. The observation area were devided into 9 st~ons, jellyfish was captured by trapping-net vertically to analyse its abundance ail dominance index, then mangrove coverage area observed at each station. ~ile the area carrying capacity analysis based on visitor potential, activities a#f.a, and spent-time prediction for snorkling and diving in Kakaban Lake. Finally, SI"OT analysis was used to formulate a strategic planning of ecotourism dfiyelopment in the lake of Kakaban. ;. The result through the SWOT analysis gained 6 basicly strategic that f&mulated by Quantitative Strategic Planning Management (QSPM) based on its p~orities, are; (1) seriously effort from all stakeholders (government. NGOs, rt§orts, and local people) for planning, conducting. and developing ecotourism in t~ Kalc:aban lake (2) optimize every stakeholder roles in understanding the relationship of conservation and environmental sustainablity (3) support the marine ecotourism worked by real policy that appropriate to the conservation norms (5) totally understand and support the inhibit ant characters that hope for sustainable utilization by conservation policy (6) stablize the areal management of Kakaban Lake through the implementation of conservation mandated legally and sustainablity development for marine ecotourisms.

Judul: Landscape Planning of Mangrove Ecotourism in Batu Ampar District Kubu Raya Regency West Kalimantan
Abstrak: Ekosistem mangrove menyediakan beragam jenis jasa ekologi dan jasa ekosistem ekonomi ke masyarakat pesisir, termasuk ekowisata. Batu Ampar, yang memiliki hutan mangrove terbesar didorong untuk mengembangkan ekowisata mangrove. Ekowisata adalah salah satu jasa ekosistem yang dapat diterapkan di lokasi yang memiliki dan dikelilingi oleh kawasan lindung seperti Batu Ampar. Lokasi penelitian ini adalah di 15 desa di Kecamatan Batu Ampar, Kabupaten Kubu Raya, Kalimantan Barat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan sebuah perencanaan lanskap ekowisata mangrove berdasarkan peta potensi mangrove yang dihasilkan dari kombinasi multi aspek yaitu aspek wisata, aspek lingkungan, aspek legal dan aspek nilai lanskap. Analisis multikriteria yang digunakan dalam ini mencakup analisis daya tarik objek wisata (ODTWA), analisis kesesuaian mangrove, analisis kerentanan biofisik, analisis kebijakan spasial dan analisis nilai lanskap, yang kemudian dianalisis menggunakan weighted overlay dengan skor berdasarkan kuisioner AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). Hasil peta potensi tersebut digunakan untuk menentukan desa prioritas untuk ekowisata mangrove dari 15 desa yang ada. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kawasan memiliki 18% potensi tinggi, 30% potensi sedang, 22.6% potensi rendah, dan sisanya tidak sesuai. Desa yang memiliki area potensial untuk ekowisata mangrove adalah Desa Batu Ampar, Desa Teluk Nibung, Desa Nipah Panjang dan Desa Tanjang Harapan. Keempat desa tersebut kemudian menjadi desa-desa prioritas untuk rencana ekowisata mangrove. Ecotourism opportunity spectrum oleh Boyd dan Butler (1996) digunakan untuk menentukan masing-masing konsep pengembangan dan struktur program dari Fennel (2002) untuk tiap desa prioritas. Konsep dasar dari ekowisata mangrove Batu Ampar adalah community-based ecotourism (CBET), sehingga konsep pengelolaan mendorong peran aktif masyarakat lokal melalui POKDARWIS. Perencanaan lanskap ekowisata mangrove Batu Ampar dibagi menjadi tiga zona berdasarkan spektrum ECOS (Ecotourism opportunity spectrum). Zona ecogeneralist berada di Desa Batu Ampar, terdiri atas tiga ruang (welcome area, area budaya dan area mangrove), dan tiga jalur (jalur budaya, jalur mangrove dan jalur dermaga), dengan daya dukung rata-rata 411 orang/fasilitas/hari. Zona intermediate berada di Desa Nipah Panjang dan Desa Teluk Nibung, terdiri dari empat ruang (ecolodge area, trail area, services area, dan area konservasi), dengan daya dukung rata-rata 215 orang/fasilitas/hari. Zona ecospesialist berada di Desa Tanjung Harapan terdiri dari satu ruang (Area Pusat Wisata), dan dua jalur (jalur berjalan dan jalur perahu), dengan daya dukung rata-rata 90 orang/fasilitas/hari., Mangrove ecosystems provide a wide variety of important ecological and economical ecosystem services to coastal communities, including ecotourism. Batu Ampar, where one of the largest mangrove forest lays are encourage to develop the mangrove ecotourism. Ecotourism is one of the ecosystems services that can be applied in the locations that surrounded by protected areas. The study location is in the 15 villages of Batu Ampar district, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan. This study aims to develop a landscape plan for mangrove ecotourism based on potential map of mangrove ecotourism with combination of multiple aspects from tourism, environment, legal, and landscape value. The multi-criteria use in this research is includes Natural Tourism Attraction (ODTWA), Mangrove Tourism Suitability, Biophysic Vulnerability, Landscape Values, and Spatial Policy, and weighted overlay based on AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) score. The potential map results were use for determined the priorities for mangrove ecotourism among the 15 villages. The results indicate that
