%X There is ambiguity on conducting sustainable development in coastal area. In fact, there are still virgin coastal areas, whilesome coastal areas have been exploited intensively across their carrying capacities. Beside environmental conservationefforts, some adaptation strategies for the fishermen to free the changes coastal areas are needed. The result of casestudy in Panjang Island, South Kalimantan shows that ecological changes were caused by land degradation of mangrove¡¯sareas. The development of mangrove¡¯s areas are the coal ports and shrimp ponds have changed their function as naturalresource, especially as natural resource of community¡¯s livelihood. Pulau Panjang is only approximately 5 Ha, but thereare at least 7 coal ports arround its coastal area. Consequently, the fishermen have lost their fish stock and theirlivelihood. In response to the ecological changes, adaptation may play important role. The community should be able torespond the direct and indirect effects of the changes. In deed, the fishermen in Panjang Island have their ownadaptation strategies that devide into economic strategy, political strategy and social strategy. The fishermen try tocolaborate their sources of income, take the benefit of social connection and exploitate their other natural resource.
