The condition of beaches in Indonesia is currently quite concerning. Indonesia's mangroves and coastal sand are in danger of being damaged. Commitment from all parties is needed to overcome coastal damage. If not, the negative impact will be dangerous for the existence of coastal communities. Damage to coastal is a serious threat to the surrounding ecosystem, even tends to harm humans. Not only waste carried by the flow into the sea, but also garbage disposed of around the coastal areas of the sea and poor land management are clearly some actions that can reduce the carrying capacity of the environment. This carriage a serious threat to the environment. The beach in Subang district, West Java has quite severe coastal damage. Analysis of shoreline changes is needed to overcome the damage to the coast. The method used to analyze shoreline changes is through satellite mapping using Google Earth. The results obtained from 10 years of coastline satellite mapping in Subang Regency are changes in coastline and area that occur due to erosion and/or accretion. These results will help to challenge erosion and/or accretion. The next step can be made a coastal protection in the form of mangrove plants or coastal protection structures.
