To develop the region, especially a conservation area, we need a balance ecosystem management while providing benefits to the local community. The objectives of this study were inventorying a physical, social, economic and cultural resources of the park and at the same time planning the area by considering a balance between environmental protection and providing benefits for the community. Our focus area was on the national park management unit I (SPTN I) of intensive-used zone (iz). This research was conducted with the survey method through several stages. Firstly, inventory by conducting observation, interview and literature study. The second stage was analysis-synthesis phase by implementing SWOT analysis and spatial analysis. The last one was planning stage by selecting program and priorities and implementing it into spatial zoning. Based on our analysis, there were four buffer villages found in the area (Blimbingsari, Ekasari, Gilimanuk, Melaya) with five types of forest ecosystems (tropical rain forest, mangrove, monsoon, savannah and coastal forest). We develop the area into two area namely main area and supporting area with proportion of 31% main area and 69% supporting area.
