Abstract

Settlements are human living environments that form part of the natural ecosystem. Coastal areas are among Indonesia's most dynamic and potential settlement zones, providing both economic and cultural functions. This study analyzes the settlement pattern of Sendang Biru Hamlet, located in Tambakrejo Village, Sumbermanjing Wetan District, Malang Regency-one of East Java's designated fishing settlements with emerging tourism potential. Despite its promising location, the settlement faces challenges related to road corridors, inadequate public facilities, and the disorganized spatial pattern of residential yards. The research aims to identify and analyze settlement patterns in Sendang Biru Hamlet using a Geographic Information System (GIS) integrated with the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) approach. The GIS method was employed to map land use, topography, hydrology, and vegetation characteristics, while the FGD provided participatory input from local stakeholders to validate spatial findings. Results indicate that the settlement pattern in Sendang Biru Hamlet is predominantly linear, following the main road network, with residential and supporting facilities developing continuously along this corridor. Spatial analysis further shows that most of the land is moderately suitable for settlement expansion, characterized by gentle slopes, adequate water resources, and productive vegetation. The study concludes with recommendations to optimize settlement design through landscape-based planning, the use of environmentally friendly materials, and community-oriented development to support sustainable coastal tourism in Sendang Biru. Keywords: Settlement Pattern, Coastal Area, Geographic Information System (GIS), Focus Group Discussion (FGD), Spatial Planning
