“…Usually, the fishermen will do fish netting at certain times, and then they will be bought by traders to be sold again in the Pasir Putih Prigi Beach area. Well-managed sustainable tourism in and around coastal wetlands can provide significant economic and ecological benefits while enabling sustainable ecosystem services (Latif et al 2021).…”

Abstract. Sulistyaningrum N, Kurniawati B, Nugroho GD, Sunarto, Kusumaningrum L, Sujarta P, Nisyawati, Thenya T, Setyawan AD. 2022. Conservation-based ecotourism development at Pasir Putih Prigi Beach, Trenggalek District, East Java, Indonesia. Indo Pac J Ocean Life 6: 29-35. One of the contributors to state revenue is the tourism sector. To advance the tourism sector, the government has begun to develop tourism based on sustainable tourism. Sustainable tourism is useful for helping nature conservation efforts. Moreover, creating sustainable tourism, it can be done by creating ecotourism. This research was conducted in June 2022 with 50 respondents around the research location. Respondents aged 20-70 years consisted of traders, homemakers, fishermen, and Pasir Putih Prigi Beach management staff. This study examines conservation and ecotourism efforts by the community around Pasir Putih Prigi Beach and social perceptions of ecotourism. Several aspects studied in the Pasir Putih Prigi Beach conservation efforts include protection, preservation, utilization, and public perceptions of Pasir Putih Prigi Beach ecotourism. The study results show that protection employs local wisdom called Larung Sembonyo, a form of gratitude for the fishing community for the marine products that have been obtained. This ceremony is also a request for the safety of the fishing community when looking for fish in the sea. Preservation by regularly cleaning the beach while utilizing the beach as a recreation and trade center improves the community's economy. Recreation offered at the beach is swimming, boat rides, snorkeling, and deep diving. More than 90% of the coastal communities of Pasir Putih Prigi Beach do not understand the concept of ecotourism. People think that ecotourism is the same as tourism in general. Ecotourism conservation and development efforts are carried out by the Tourism and Culture Office of Trenggalek District through the TIU of Tourism Destinations with the community groups. Cooperation between the government and the community will increase coastal conservation and the economic benefits the community receives.

The increasing role of tourism as an income-generating sector has led to environmental degradation, making ecotourism a crucial factor in preserving the environment. Ecotourism should involve communities and use information technology to support development and ecological preservation. To explore the relevance and use of information technology for ecotourism development in rural areas in Batu, Indonesia, we surveyed 151 micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The results indicate that MSMEs play a significant role in enforcing smart ecotourism to support economic progress. Innovations in information technology should be developed to accommodate MSMEs, given the relatively young age and high education level of businessmen/women. Future research can focus on the impact of such innovations on the sustainability of ecotourism in rural areas. Keywords: ecotourism, MSMEs, information technology
