Many studies proposed strategies and directions for the development of Labuan Bajo city into a tourism attraction center. However, they did not examine the tourism life cycle useful for its comprehensive development. This research, therefore, aims to analyze changes associated with the development of tourist attractions and its impact on land use. Data were collected through observation, from government agencies, and private institutions, with the qualitative method used for its analysis. The results showed that tourism attractions in Labuan Bajo City are developing in terms of number, type and distribution of attractions, with a significant influence in the land use patterns.
