The Role of Jakarta Reclamation Island for New Coastal Tourist Destination in North Jakarta

Abstract

Among the various types of tourism and recreational waterfronts in Jakarta, Ancol sandy beach area is still a favored destination. Given the limitations such as lack of supporting facilities and sanitation, this area is still full of visitors since the absence of similar tourism and recreational areas in Jakarta. The development plan for land reclamation on the north side of Jakarta city offers a good opportunity as an alternative waterfront tourist destination area. This is where the role of Jakarta Provincial Government is necessary in order to ensure proper and inclusive public sandy beach recreational areas in North Jakarta Reclamation Area.
