El Niño-La Niña effected climate conditions in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to analyze the SST during El Niño-La Niña. The data used is the ENSO index SST Niño 3.4 anomaly in 1986-2017 and also SST data in the year of the El Niño-La Niña event with weak, moderate, and strong. It found that SST tended to be higher during El Niño than its normal average in the Java Sea by 29°C, while the normal SST is 28.94°C. La Niña SST in the Java Sea has an average of 29.06°C which is 0,6°C warmer than its normal average temperature. It can be concluded that El Niño-La Niña conditions do not greatly affect SST in the Java Sea. SST tends to be warmer during El Niño-La Niña than its normal average in the Java Sea. The average of SST is lower/cooler at 109.5-110.5° East Longitude than that of at the other longitudes. This is due to the mixing current of the cold water mass flow from the South China Sea with the mass of water from the Makassar Strait, each of which carries nutrients.
