Tourism is a sector that carries a vital role as a contributor to the economic growth of a country. Tourism plays a big part as the source of regional earnings such as Local Own-source Revenue (LOR) which applies as one of the main income of Indonesia. Tourism is a sector that is prone to uncontrolled events such as disaster. One of the tourism areas in Indonesia that contributes to LOR and also prone to disaster is Special Economic Zone (SEZ) of Tanjung Lesung Tourism. Tsunami disaster that occurred in 22 December 2018 leaves a huge impact to SEZ of Tanjung Lesung Tourism. Responding to this condition, SEZ of Tanjung Lesung Tourism has conducted a few proceedings of recovery in 2019. However, the effort of recovery that hasn’t been completely performed is encountered with another uncontrolled event which is COVID-10 that leaves a big impact to the tourism area since March 2020. The events that took place in the past 3 years carry a vast impact to the components of tourism which affect the regional income. Tourism has three components which are amount of investment, number of tourists, and number of hotel occupancy. Therefore, this research aims to identify the impacts of tsunami and post disaster recovery strategy along with the impacts of COVID-19 to SEZ of Tanjung Lesung Tourism which influence the Local Own-source (LOR) of Pandeglang Regency. Content analysis and quantitative descriptive analysis are applied to identify the impact of tsunami and COVID-19 to the tourism area.Then, to formulate post disaster recovery strategy of tsunami using qualitative descriptive analysis. The analyses imply that the uncontrollable events occurring in SEZ Tanjung Lesung Tourism in the past 3 years cause the decreasing contribution amount to the LOR of Pandeglang Regency continuously. The decrease is defined by the implication of tsunami and COVID-19 which affect the number of tourist and hotel occupancy, while the number of investment did not get affected. The post tsunami disaster recovery strategy focuses on the procurement of attractions, amenity, and accessibility that can be easily attained in terms of time and price, and it is required to involve the local community to develop and improve the capacity of human resources regarding disaster management which is efficient and right on target.
