Sandy coastal area in Batul district has a specific ecological probelm. Hot and arid land, strong wind cause coastal area usage less. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problem that occur in coastal area. One of the solution is to reclaim the sandy coastal area using Casuarinas Equisetifolia. Casuarinas Equisetifolia suitable for use as pioneer plant to solve the problem in the coastal area which can grow well in the hot and arid land. Casuarinas Equisetifolia has given a considerable influence on the micro climate. Casuarinas Equisetifolia can be a micro climate control by absorbing solar radiation and becoming wind barrier. According to the background, then be measured against climate parameter to determine the effect of Casuarinas Equisetifolia to the micro climate. The research was conducted in Srandakan Coastal Area, Bantul Distict by measuring micro climate parameters, such as wind speed, temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, and evaporation, in reclaimed coastal area and non-reclaimed coastal area everyday. Collected data were then analyzed to compare the differences micro climate parameters between reclaimed are and non-reclaimed area. The research was conducted from July 2013 until August 2013. The result showed that Casuarinas Equisetifolia influence the micro climate parameters in observed areas, such as reducing wind speed, increasing tempeature, decreasing the humidity, and decreasing the value of evaporation.
