Purpose: This study aims to analyze the development diversity and land usage in coastal areas, especially development with a combination of three values (littoral, marine, anthropic) at Tomini Bay coast, Gorontalo City, in relation to Detailed Spatial Planning of Gorontalo City.
Design/methodology/approach: This research uses Quantitative descriptive method using primary data and secondary data. The analysis technique is three and four dimensional mapping from the cumulative percentage calculation of each index to determine the tendency of concentration and distribution of various coastal land usage indices.
Findings: The development by stakeholders and residents in each village shows a varied index value. This can be seen from the diversity index value. The highest diversity index value is Talumolo Village of 14.53, followed by North Leato Village of 12.08, South Leato Village of 11.34 and the lowest is Pohe Village of 7.17. This indicates a tendency of littoral area development by utilizing the coastal border area of Tomini Bay while the marine area is still limited to port construction to load and unload goods and passengers services.
Research limitations/implications: The research is limited to the most of coastal cultivated areas in along the Tomini Bay that cannot accomodate many other interested phenomena.
Practical implications: The strategy for regional development in coastal border areas should have technical provisions implementation for settlement development, especially for the intensity of building layout and environment.
Social Implications: The city government should control the development of new buildings in coastal border area of Tomini Bay, providing protection to coastal border of Tomini Bay, and providing disaster protection buildings around the coastal border of Tomini Bay.
Originality/value: Most of coastal cultivated along the Tomini Bay become main concern but still not researched for the technical provisions implementation for settlement development. This research examine the technical provisions implementation for settlement development
