The condition of the Covid-19 pandemic which lasted for approximately a year resulted in restrictions on tourism and entertainment activities. Beach tourism is one of the tourism that is carried out outdoors to be excellent because of this condition. Sebalang Beach which is located in Tarahan Village has considerable potential because of its location which is not too far from the city center and has quite interesting natural scenery. This research was conducted in December 2020 to determine the suitability index for coastal tourism using the Tourism Suitability Index. Determining the Tourism Suitability Index is done by taking field data such as depth, current velocity, water clarity, marine biota, and type of beach. The results of this study stated that this Sebalang beach received a Tourism Conformity Index of 81% and received the appropriate predicate for the category of swimming tourism.

The coastal region is a strategic area that has enormous potential. Kalianda is one of the coastal areas in South Lampung which has great potential with the main activities are fisheries and marine tourism, but it is also vulnerable to physical effects. The purpose of this study was to assess the vulnerability of physical parameters and to analyze the level of Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) in Kalianda, South Lampung. The results showed that the vulnerability level of the Kalianda Coast based on the rate of shoreline change  and geomorphological parameters were at a very high level of vulnerability. Whereas based on the parameters of the mean significant wave height, the average tidal tides and beach slope, the Kalianda Coast was at a low level of vulnerability. Overall, the results of the analysis indicated that CVI value ranged from 3.10 to 9.94, which categorized as low and medium vulnerability levels. Distribution of Kalianda coastal vulnerability level along  3.30 km (11.29%) was at low vulnerability level and along 25.98 km (88.71%) was categorized as medium vulnerability level.

Wilayah pesisir merupakan kawasan strategis yang memiliki potensi yang sangat besar. Kalianda merupakan salah satu kawasan pesisir di Lampung Selatan yang memiliki potensi besar dengan kegiatan utama perikanan tangkap dan wisata bahari, namun pesisir juga rentan terhadap aspek fisik yang mempengaruhi wilayahnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji nilai kelas setiap parameter fisik kerentanan dan menganalisis tingkat kerentanan pesisir di Kalianda, Kabupaten Lampung Selatan menggunakan perhitungan Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kerentanan di Pesisir Kalianda berdasarkan parameter laju perubahan garis pantai dan geomorfologi dominan berada pada tingkat kerentanan yang sangat tinggi. Sedangkan berdasarkan parameter rerata tinggi gelombang signifikan, rerata tunggang pasang surut  dan kemiringan pantai, Pesisir Kalianda berada pada tingkat kerentanan yang rendah. Secara keseluruhan, hasil analisis menggunakan perhitungan Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI), nilai perhitungan berkisar antara 3,10 – 9,94 yaitu pada tingkat kerentanan rendah dan menengah. Distribusi tingkat kerentanan pesisir Kalianda yaitu sepanjang 3,30 km (11,29%) berada pada tingkat kerentanan rendah dan sepanjang 25,98 km (88,71%) berada pada tingkat kerentanan menengah.
