Penelitian ini dianalisis menggunakan metode SWOT yang bertujuan untuk menentukan konsep strategi yang mendukung pengembangan perikanan pancing ramah lingkungan di Kabupaten Raja Ampat. Strategi yang diperoleh diantaranya optimalisasi kearifan lokal sasi, membangun fasilitas perbekalan melaut, dan penguatan armada penangkapan lokal.
