Abstract: Accumulation of marine waste is a problem for tourist areas, one of which is due to the activities of densely populated settlements around the coast. The study aims to determine the type and density of inorganic waste at Muara Indah Beach, Tanggamus Regency. The method used is purposive sampling with a sampling technique using a transect line. Data analysis was carried out using a quantitative descriptive approach. The waste taken was macro-sized inorganic waste. The results of the study showed that plastic waste dominated the pieces of waste as much as 174.67 pcs with a density of 5.82 pcs/m2. The relative density value of plastic waste reached 84.25%. The lowest density was ceramic waste of 0.03 pcs/m2 with a relative density value of 0.48%. The government and surrounding communities are expected to work together to optimize waste management.
