Abstrak—Pesona alam dari pulau-pulau kecil yang terdapat di kepulauan Riau tidak dapat dipungkiri mampu memanjakan mata dan menarik perhatian orang-orang untuk datang berwisata. Pulau Mubut darat, yang berada di kecamatan Sembulang, kota Batam, Kepulauan Riau, sudah menjadi satu di antara beberapa kawasan wisata pantai yang menjadi pilihan. Namun, dalam pengelolaan lokasi wisata, masyarakat dan pengelola secara khususnya belum mampu menerapkan ide-ide dan fasilitas pendukung untuk memuaskan para wisatawan yang datang berkunjung sehingga kawasan wisata pulau Mubut darat mulai kalah saing dengan wisata lainnya. Hasil observasi tim pengabdian Politeknik Negeri Batam menemukan beberapa ide yang dapat membantu meningkatkan promosi dan daya tarik wisata di Pulau Mubut. Satu diantaranya adalah dengan membuat plang informasi denah lokasi atau POI di kawasan Mubut Darat. Metode pembuatan plang ini dimulai dengan pengambilan gambar keseluruhan Pulau Mubut Darat. Kemudian, titik lokasi masing-masing area dipetakan dan dinamai di setiap bangunan dan fasilitas yang tersedia. Dengan adanya plang informasi denah lokasi atau POI tersebut, wisatawan akan mendapat informasi secara utuh tentang kawasan pulau mubut darat. Plang informasi denah lokasi atau POI tersebut diharapkan menjadi bagian dari ikon foto wisata pulau Mubut darat sehingga mampu mempromosikan dan meningkatkan daya tarik wisatawan untuk datang berkunjung.
