Traditional fishing communities tend to have low incomes, they often have difficulty in fulfilling basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. The purpose of this research is to reveal the socio-economic dynamics of traditional fishing communities in South Konawe Regency. This phenomenon was revealed using a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through three stages, namely observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study indicate that: (1) the livelihood system of traditional fishing communities can be seen from the main occupation, the use of fishing gear, local knowledge, culture and tradition, community lifestyle, simple lifestyle, and environmental conservation; (2) the socio-economic dynamics of traditional fishing communities include dependence on natural resources, poverty and economic uncertainty, access to resources, modernization and technology, the influence of government policies, climate change.
