Abstract

Indonesia is a country with a majority of the population living in coastal areas. So that damage that occurs in coastal areas will have an impact on coastal life and the surrounding environment. Aiming to find out the causes of damage to coastal areas in the Bancar sub-district of Tuban and their impact on the coastal ecosystem as a whole, the focus of the research was on five villages: Margosuko, Bancar, Bogorejo, Boncong and Sukolilo villages. Through qualitative methods, in-depth interviews, direct observation and documentation are used in data collection. The research informants were the Bancar sub-district head, the village head of Margosuko, Bancar, Boncong, Bogorejo, Sukolilo, the Head of the Fisheries Department and Capturing the Fisheries and Animal Husbandry Department of Tuban, the environment service secretary, and the Head of Tuban Regency Marine and Fisheries Supervision. The results showed that the cause of damage to coastal areas in Bancar sub-district was the theft of sea sand, the lack of sea wave breakers and the lack of intense reforestation in the coastal areas. While the impact of the damage is disruption of the coastal ecosystem, coastline setbacks, and damage to residential areas and several roads. In general, technological developments and community needs are contributors to environmental damage in coastal areas, which if not addressed immediately will cause inheritance of environmental damage to future humans.
