Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the variety of livelihoods and incomes of the community around the ecotourism area. The study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and questionnaires from 35 respondents consisting of traders, fishermen, managers, and photographers, who were selected purposively. The results showed that the existence of ecotourism has encouraged livelihood diversification from the fisheries sector to the tourism service sector. The trader group had the highest income level, followed by managers, fishermen, and photographers. These findings indicate that Bale Mangrove ecotourism has made a real contribution to improving the local community's economy. The conclusion of this study confirms that community-based ecotourism development can be an effective strategy in improving the welfare of coastal communities while supporting sustainable economic development
