Abstract

Development of an environmentally friendly tourism destination is an appropriate concept for tourism development in Indonesia, particularly in the Nusa Tenggara Timur region. It can be said that environmentally friendly tourism at Manikin Beach in Kupang Regency serves as a benchmark for the success of the development and growth process of a tourism destination around the city of Kupang. However, due to the suboptimal development and management of Manikin Beach, there is a need for intervention through the development of eco-friendly tourism to add value that can be marketed to tourist. This research employs a qualitative research approach using the research instrument of interview guides conducted with relevant stakeholders. The findings of this study indicate that the environmental condition of the Manikin Beach area is no longer attractive due to lack of cleanliness and inadequate facility arrangement. Additionally, development based on zoning needs to be carried out by implementing environmentally friendly/ecotourism criteria to achieve an environmentally friendly tourism destination.
