Abstract

 In the current trend, nature tourism is one of the most popular activities. Nature tourism has its own uniqueness, especially in terms of geological aspects. Geological aspects are important aspects that make up the earth's surface, such as its natural appearance (geomorphology), its constituent rocks, and its geological structure. This results in different characteristics in each location. The purpose of this study is to determine the value of the assessment which is the benchmark in the development of geotourism objects in the research area. This research was conducted in the Selayar Islands Regency, namely on Bahuluang Beach, Bukit Kampung Tua Bitombang, Jammeng Waterfall, Nane Polassi Island, Tinabo Island, Jinato Island, Latondu Island, and Tarupa Island. The research method is carried out in the form of taking geological field data such as geomorphological data, lithological data, and geological structure data. The results showed that the lithology found was limestone in the area of ​​Bahuluang Beach, Tinabo Island, Jinato Island, Latondu Island, and Tarupa Island, sandstone lithology was found in two areas, namely in Bukit Kampung Tua Bitombang, and porphyry basalt lithology in the area of ​​Nane Polassi Island. Geomorphological units that are found include Denudasional hill units and Marine units. The geological structure found is a shear joint on Nane Polassi Island with a minimum stress direction of N285°E and a maximum stress of N15°E

Keyphrases: Geotourism, geological feature, geosites
