The method used here is a qualitative method with in-depth interview technique conducted on 37 Pangandaran fishermen in 4 regions. The research shows that fishermen in East and West Coastal areas are very concerned about the sustainability of the ecosystems in these waters, so they feel obliged to participate in managing and conserving coral reefs so that the ecosystem is maintained and they will still benefit from the maintenance of coral reefs with the number of fish in these waters.
