Abstract
Beach tourism is an activity that spends time while feeling the beauty of the atmosphere around the beach. The city of Surabaya has one of the most attractive natural tourist destinations and is located on the Kenjeran beach in the eastern part of Surabaya. This beach tourism activity can cause water pollution due to waste from tourism activities and can cause damage to coastal ecosystems. The purpose of this study is to determine the value of the Land Suitability Index and the value of carrying capacity of the land as a beach tourism. The method used in this study was to measure water quality, measure grain size of sediments, observe criteria for objects and tourist attractions, and conduct interviews. The results of this study indicate that of the 4.3 hectares of the Kenjeran Beach Conformity Index value for the coastal tourism category a score of 47.8% was obtained in the S3 category. This category includes having more limiting factors to fulfill. These factors will have an impact on reducing tourist satisfaction for tourism. This Kenjeran Beach has a maximum value with regional carrying capacity that can accommodate 2,580 people per day for 9 hours.
