Abstract


Whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is one of the largest fish species in the world. It has a wide geographic distribution, primarily in tropical waters with warm temperatures. Due to its migratory behavior, the whale shark is classified as a pelagic species. This study aims to assess the carrying capacity of the whale shark tourism area and to determine the optimal number of boats based on the area's carrying capacity in Botubarani Village. The research methods used include carrying capacity analysis (DDK) and optimal boat number (JPO) assessment.

Keywords
