The coastal area of Segeri Sub-district, Pangkajene and Island Regency, as one the areas along West Coast South Sulawesi, is a zone prone to natural phenomenon sea level rise. impact this needs be studied identify vulnerability project changes in future. research aims calculate index future due factors that affect vulnerability. This was conducted for five months at Bone-Village Beach Bawasalo Bontomatene Islands Indonesia. method data analysis carried out Analysis ecosystems resources, physical social characteristics community, environmental with Vulnerability Scoping Diagram (VSD) model places exposure, sensitivity, adaptive capacity dimensions Index. components exposure dimension consist dynamics, disturbances, population. Components sensitivity are characteristics, land use, human settlements. includes habitat marine conservation areas. Based on score each parameter three dimensions, Coastal Index (CVI) all observed locations range CVI values 7.96 - 9.59, which means category Moderate Vulnerability. Factors strongly influence including Erosion, waves, tides caused by oceanographic so; if Area does not make adaptation mitigation efforts, then possibility next 5 10 years, can high or very Adaptation efforts made strengthening boundary area, planting expanding mangrove trees area.
