Based
on
observations
carried
out
there
are
several
types
of
mangroves
found,
namely
Avicennia
lanata;
Nypa
fructicans;
Rhizophora
apiculata;
Rhizophora
mucronata;
Rhizophora
stylosa;
and
Sonneratia
alba.
In
general,
the
conditions
for
the
development
of
mangrove
ecosystem-based
tourism
can
be
implemented,
but
can
be
upgraded
to
education
and
conservation-based
tourism
by
having
learning
media
on
species,
conservation,
mangrove
ecosystem
preservation,
and
mangrove
nursery
media.
According
to
Bengen
and
Dutton
(2004),
the
mangrove
ecosystem
is
one
of
the
most
important
ecosystem
in
the
ecological
system
of
the
coastal
regions
of
Indonesia.
The
Mangrove
ecosystem
is
responsible
for
protecting
the
shoreline
from
erosion,
stabilizing
the
substrate,
holding
back
the
wind,
acting
as
a
genetic
pool,
and
supporting
life
around
it.
The
characteristics
of
mangrove
ecosystem
are
influenced
by
soil
conditions,
salinity,
flooding,
tidal,
and
oxygen
content.
The
adaptation
of
mangrove
plant
to
the
habitat
appears
is
marked
by
the
morphology
and
composition
of
the
mangrove
plant
structure
(Rismunandar
2000).
Therefore,
further
rehabilitation
and
conservation
of
mangrove
ecosystem
is
required
to
preserve
mangrove
ecosystems
that
reflect
the
relationships
between
the
living
creatures
and
the
environment
as
well
as
the
establishment
of
sustainable
disaster
programs
based
on
education,
tourism,
and
conservation.
