This study discussed about tourist destinations in Tilan Island, which was built under the initiative of the local youth through festival tourism. The tourist destination has been positively responded to by visitors whose number keeps increasing each year, and Kepenghuluan Rantau Bais has been recognised as a Tourism Village. Tourism in Tilan Island persistently transforms from festival tourism to regular tourism, starting from its opening every Saturday and Sunday. This study is a qualitative study that uses the ethnography method where the researcher lived for two months in Kepenghuluan Rantau Bais. The data was obtained using participative observation and in-depth interviews with an appointed informant who has a wide knowledge on tourism in Tilan Island. This research found that not all tourism potential in Tilan Island and Rokan River are explored to become tourist activities.
