The development of tourism in Malang Regency can be seen from the increase in the number of visitors and new tourist destinations that have emerged. Especially tourist attractions that utilize coastal and marine resources on the southern coast of Malang Regency. One of them is Ungapan beach tourism area in Gedangan District. An increase in the number of tourist visits has become an advantage while providing challenges in coastal management. The purpose of this study was to determine the estimated carrying capacity of Ungapan beach tourism. The method used in this study is a descriptive-quantitate method that assesses tourism carrying capacity to support coastal management. Components that we assessed are;first, Physical carrying capacity (PCC); second, Real Carrying Capacity (RCC); and also third, Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC). Results calculation show that the study are the PCC is 12,960 tourists per/day, RCC is 1,993 people/day and the current ECC is 1,533 per/day. The Conclusion is the Ungapan Beach is good place for recreational activities but still has some aspect to improve without causing disruption to the coastal ecosystem and the comfort of the tourists themselves. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.
