Abstract

This study examines tourism management at Toronipa Beach, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia, an emerging coastal tourism destination that faces various challenges, such as conflicts related to levy mechanisms. The purpose of this study is to understand the dynamics of tourism management in the area and the relationships among stakeholders within the context of community-based tourism (CBT). The method used is a qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including field observations, in-depth interviews with business actors and the community, as well as secondary document analysis. The main findings show that tourism management is dominated by the local community, but there are inconsistencies in levy implementation that cause conflicts with tourists. This study emphasizes the importance of transparent governance and community capacity empowerment to support tourism development. The implications of the study point to the need for synergy among the government, local communities, and the private sector in managing destinations so that socio-economic benefits can be shared fairly.
