Abstract
This study discusses about the development of Kampung Selangan into a community-based tourism destination. Kampung Selangan that once developed into a tourism village is the background of this study. The Selangan City Program is expected to become a solution for the sustainable development. According to Suansri (2003), Community-Based Tourism is a tourism concept that takes environmental sustainability and sustainable tourism development aspect into account. Using qualitative descriptive method, this study tries to analyze the development process. The approach of this study is the five dimensions of Community-Based Tourism according to Suansri; economy, social, culture, environment, and politics. From each dimension, activities that support the Community-Based Tourism, e.g. trainings, new job opportunities, reduction of fish bombing, establishment of tourism awareness groups, etc. However, weaknesses such as the absence of conservation efforts directly by the community and the low initiative from the community to increase the program. Therefore, there are some basic evaluations that need to be done immediately so that the program can run well for a long time.
