| Abstract | ||
| Tourism is one of the strategic sectors in development in Indonesia. The tourism sector is expected to bring economic benefits to both the community and the state, also in terms of regions and cities. The purpose of this study was to analyze the perception of tourists and the community towards climate change in Sendang Biru and analyze the adaptation strategies of tourists and the community towards climate change in Sendang Biru. This research was conducted at Sendang Biru beach tourism, Sumber Manjing Wetan District, Malang Regency. The results of the study found that most tourists have an understanding of climate change and easy access to daily weather information through technology. Nevertheless, the impact of climate change and extreme weather conditions on Sendang Biru beach is not significantly felt by tourists, especially since the majority come from outside the area. Therefore, it is recommended to increase education, develop concrete adaptation strategies, and collaboration between the government, tourism stakeholders, and the community in dealing with climate change in order to maintain the sustainability of tourism in the destination. | ||
