Management of Tourism Areas Based on Disaster Mitigation (Case Study of Senggigi Beach)

Abstract

Tourism is often associated with magnificence and pleasure. But behind that, tourism is a very vulnerable and fragile economic activity. One of the vulnerabilities that overshadow tourism is the occurrence of natural disasters. In Indonesia, several disasters have caused an impact on the tourism industry, such as the Lombok earthquake that took place in 2018 causing 4,636 tourists to be victims, 100,000 tourists reduced, and losses of 1.4 trillion in the tourism sector. The purpose of this study is to identify tourism area management based on disaster mitigation. This research was designed using qualitative methods. The data collection uses field observation techniques, documentation, and in-depth interviews. The determination of the island of Lombok as a research location is because this region has a variety of interesting natural tourism potentials, such as the Senggigi beach which is located on the west coast of Lombok Island. Senggigi areas have a high earthquake and tsunami vulnerability. Based on research, it is known that Senggigi Beach needs to get more attention in terms of disaster mitigation, such as the making and installation of disaster-prone maps, the addition of evacuation signs, evacuation route maps, shelters, beach belts or buildings as breakwaters, and also monitoring towers. This is useful to provide a sense of security and comfort for tourists visiting the tourist sites.

Program Kesiapsiagaan Tsunami Usaha Hotel di Kawasan Pariwisata Anyer, Provinsi Banten

“…Selama satu dekade terakhir sejumlah bencana alam sangat mempengaruhi destinasi pariwisata di Indonesia, mencakup gempa bumi yang melanda kawasan pariwisata di Pantai Senggigi, Lombok (Maryanti et al, 2019;Wahyuningtyas et al, 2020), gempa yang diikuti tsunami di Palu (Aprilia & Stiv, 2018;Darwati et al, 2019), serta Tsunami di Selat Sunda yang berdampak pada kunjungan wisatawan di kawasan pariwisata Anyer, Carita, dan Tanjung Lesung dua tahun terakhir (Shalih, 2019;Wulung, Abdullah, & Ervina, 2019;Wulung & Abdullah, 2020). Bencana alam tersebut diindikasikan oleh letak Indonesia yang berada pada jalur Cincin Api Pasifik dan kawasan rawan bencana tsunami, gempa bumi, dan banjir.…”

“…Sesuai arahan kebijakan ini, usaha hotel di kawasan pariwisata Anyar sebaiknya melakukan koordinasi dengan BPBD Provinsi Banten dalam upaya program kesiapsiagaan tsunami, baik itu dalam perencanaan, pengelolaan, hingga pelatihan bagi manajemen dan wisatawan. Diperlukan integrasi yang baik antara usaha hotel dengan BPBD dalam program penanggulangan bencana di kawasan pesisir sebagai upaya membangun ketahanan bencana struktural dan non-struktural (Wahyuningtyas et al, 2020).…”

“…Peta evakuasi yang memuat jalur evakuasi, rambu petunjuk arah evakuasi, dan prosedur-prosedur yang harus dilakukan oleh wisatawan ketika terdengar sirene tsunami atau terjadi tsunami. Fasilitas peta evakuasi dan rambu penunjuk arah evakuasi sangat penting untuk efektivitas dan pengawasan tindakan penyelamatan saat terjadi bencana (Wahyuningtyas et al, 2020). Peta evakuasi dan rambu-rambunya harus jelas mengidentifikasikan arah menuju titik kumpul evakuasi dan diproduksi dalam multibahasa, mengingat wisatawan yang menginap berasal dari berbagai daerah (Nguyen et al, 2016).…”
