High diversities of flora and fauna, biomass potency, and unique landscape are factors that promote mangrove ecosystems in Pejarakan Village, Buleleng Regency, Bali to be marine tourism destinations. Besides its social, economic, and ecological benefits, the opening of the areas for tourism may have some adverse impacts. As preparation in advancing tourism industries in the area, this research aims at determining the type of tourism to be developed and the carrying capacity of the area to receives visitors. Data were collected for assessing the environmental condition, calculating tourism suitability index, and carrying capacity of the area for tourism. The mangrove vegetation consisted of nine species mangroves dominated by Rhizophora apiculata and Rhizophora mucronata. In general, the mangrove area is characterised with substantial thickness and mangrove density. The ecosystems are suitable for ecotourism development at three points in the area.
