The development of ecotourism packages in Petaling Village, Selat Nasik District, Belitung Regency, is located on Mendanau Island, 60.5 km from the city center of Belitung Regency. This village has significant ecotourism potential but still requires further development due to the lack of integrated tourism packages. This research aims to analyze the components of the 4A tourism in Petaling Village, covering attraction, accessibility, amenities, and ancillary services, as well as designing special interest ecotourism-based tour packages. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observation, documentation, and literature review. The results show that ecotourism in Petaling Village has the potential to be the main attraction for tourists. Based on the analysis of the tourism potential, a package and ecotourism calculation are designed with a travel plan that explores the attractions of natural resource conservation and environmental tourism, economic considerations considering cultural heritage, and the welfare of local residents. This has resulted in three tourism products: One Day Tour - Get to Know Petaling Village, Two Days One Night - Know More about Petaling Village, and Three Days Two Nights - Be a Part of Petaling Village.
