The Kite Diagram of Sustainability Analysis presents that the sustainability status of all the used dimension is classified as sustain. The overall sustainability status of ecotourism is sustainable with the index as many as 76.49. The most sustainable dimension is education and recreation, while the least is participation dimension.
