Abstract:

This research delves into the critical link between tourism infrastructure and regional development in Bontobahari, Indonesia, emphasizing the impact of coastal typologies on sustainable infrastructure planning. Recognizing the significant contribution of tourism to Indonesia's GDP and its role in the economy, the study underscores the need for improved infrastructure to bolster tourism growth and enhance visitor satisfaction, especially in coastal areas where infrastructure deficiencies are notable. The aim is to optimize infrastructure development through a coastal typology-based approach, fostering effective tourism resource management. Employing methodologies such as field observations, spatial data analysis, and infrastructure condition evaluations, the research identifies and assesses regional typologies, determining their suitability for tourism. Key findings reveal varied infrastructure conditions: some coastal areas suffer from poor roads and inadequate waste management, while others have satisfactory water systems. The study discusses sustainable tourism's alignment with Sustainable Development Goals, advocating for infrastructure that supports economic and ecological sustainability. A typology-based planning approach is used, tailored to address the specific needs of different coastal zones, enhancing disaster resilience and environmental sustainability. This study suggests significant infrastructure enhancements are necessary, particularly in roads and waste management, to improve the functionality and appeal of tourist destinations. The research also highlights the broader social benefits, such as increased local employment and improved resident life quality, underlining the comprehensive value of upgraded tourism infrastructure. This approach not only supports Bontobahari's economic growth but also promotes a sustainable, resilient tourism sector.
