Pengembangan Wisata Hutan Mangrove di Kelurahan Monro-Monro Kecamatan Binamu Kabupaten Jeneponto

Abstract

Mangrove forests or mangroves are forests that grow in brackish water, and are influenced by sea tides. These forests grow in places where muddying and accumulation of organic material occurs. Both in bays that are protected from the onslaught of waves, and around river mouths where the water slows down and deposits the mud below from upstream. For some people who live in coastal areas such as Monro-Monro, mangroves are not just plants, mangroves that grow along coastlines and river estuaries function as barriers to sea water abrasion and reduce the risk of flooding. This Community Service (PKM) aims to develop mangrove forests in the Monro-Monro sub-district, Binamu District, Jeneponto Regency as a tourist attraction. The implementation of this PKM is carried out through Bosowa University Real-Thematic Work Lecture activities with the theme of tourism through revitalizing tourist attractions, building basic facilities and infrastructure as well as optimizing digital-based tourism promotion. Based on the results of PKM implementation, the expected goals and targets have been achieved well.
