The aims of the study are to indentify and describes the recent geophysical characteristics of land in Rote Ndao as a basic factor for water conservation and sustainable tourism development in arid environments. Field work and secondary data collection were done in Rote Ndao Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. Result of the study confirm that climates and rainfall was limited, but in some month there are heavy rain. Absent of land conservation strategy lead to the rapid runoff. The topography was undulating and if it is properly managed such structure can be used to support water conservation.
