Abstract

Boom Beach in Banyuwangi has a long history as an international port and center of economic activity in the past. Over time, this area has experienced a decline in function due to technological advances and shallowing. However, this area has been successfully revived as a sustainable tourism destination that attracts international attention. The development of this area is supported by various parties through cultural promotion, provision of modern facilities, and strategic cooperation. This study aims to understand the history, development, and development strategies of Boom Beach as a sustainable tourism destination, as well as to identify factors that support its success in improving the economy and welfare of the local community. The methods used in this study include a literature review and a historiographic approach to analyze qualitative data related to the history and development of the area. Source verification was carried out internally and externally, and data interpretation was carried out qualitatively to compile a comprehensive narrative. The results of the study show that the development of Boom Beach has succeeded in increasing tourist visits through various cultural events and media promotions. Modern port and marine tourism facilities have contributed to this success, including a sustainable area development plan and collaboration between various parties. This success has had a positive impact on improving the local economy and empowering the local community, while maintaining the preservation of the area's culture and economic potential.

Review

This study on the "Dynamics of Banyuwangi Boom Port From Colonial to Millennial" presents a compelling narrative of urban and economic transformation, offering valuable insights into the regeneration of historical sites. The abstract clearly articulates the journey of Boom Beach from a declining international port to a thriving sustainable tourism destination, highlighting the multi-faceted strategies employed, including cultural promotion, infrastructure development, and strategic cooperation. The emphasis on sustainable development, community welfare, and the preservation of cultural heritage is particularly commendable, positioning this research as relevant to broader discussions on heritage management and regional economic revitalization. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative approach, combining literature review with a historiographic analysis, which is appropriate for tracing the long-term evolution of the port. The commitment to internal and external source verification underscores a robust effort towards data reliability. The stated findings – including increased tourist visits attributed to cultural events and media promotion, the role of modern facilities, and cross-party collaboration – paint a picture of successful revitalization. The reported positive impacts on the local economy and community empowerment, while maintaining cultural and economic potential, are promising outcomes for regional development. While the abstract outlines a promising and well-intentioned study, a more critical lens reveals areas for potential enhancement. The claims of "success" and "positive impact" are presented in a largely generalized manner; providing more specific metrics, case studies, or a deeper dive into the *mechanisms* by which these impacts were achieved would significantly strengthen the study's empirical contribution. Furthermore, an expert review might anticipate a more explicit discussion of the theoretical frameworks underpinning this transformation (e.g., theories of urban regeneration, sustainable tourism development, or community-based tourism). Addressing potential challenges encountered during the revitalization process or presenting diverse perspectives from various community stakeholders could also add nuance and depth to the comprehensive narrative.
