The Qualitative Feasibility Analysis Using Component 6A For Developing Area Tourism Beringin Sila Dam in Sumbawa Regency

Researchers have utilized the 6A components in the analysis of visitor satisfaction at tourist attractions in Indonesia and have the opportunity to use them in qualitative feasibility analyses of developing tourist areas. Based on these considerations, the researcher conducted a qualitative feasibility analysis using the 6A components in developing the Beringin Sila Dam (BSD) tourist area. The research aims to measure the suitability of tourist attractions and recommend tourist attractions and service activities to develop them as tourist areas in the Utan District, Sumbawa Regency. By combining descriptive research methods and exploratory research methods, it is hoped that we will be able to describe the objective conditions of tourist areas and explore the potential for development as tourist areas that attract local tourists, domestic tourists, and foreign tourists. Data was collected using triangulation techniques, combining observation, survey, and focus group discussion methods. Data were analyzed using qualitative feasibility and completed with sensitivity analysis. The research results show that the BSD tourist attraction is worthy of being developed as a tourist area in Utan District, Sumbawa Regency, and has resilience if operational costs increase by 10%/year. From the results of this research, it is recommended that accommodation and culinary infrastructure and facilities be built, as well as developing tourist attractions such as fishing competitions, rowing competitions, mountain bike competitions, and cycling (cultural and sports attractions) to increase the attraction for local tourists, domestic tourists, and foreign tourists.
