This article explores the factors that contribute to the development of sustainable fishing ports, which consider environmental, social, and economic aspects in a balanced way. This research aims to develop a model of sustainable fishing port considering significant factors which influenced the sustainable fishing port, especially for fishing ports located in East Java Province, Indonesia. In this term, the sustainable fishing port is well known as an eco-fishing port. Purposive sampling was used to choose 215 participants from representatives of the government, private sectors in the fishing field, and fishing communities of six potential fishing ports in East Java Province, Indonesia. The data was analysed using a partial least square (PLS) approach with SmartPLS 3. The findings of the research indicate that eight hypotheses (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H7, H8 and H11) are supported while three hypotheses (H6, H9, and H10) are not supported. The study reveals a significant correlation between market demand, community welfare, infrastructure, environmental carrying capacity, and regulation. It is also found that market demand, community welfare, infrastructure, environmental carrying capacity, and regulation have significant positive relations with eco-fishing ports. The positive relationship indicates that adherence to these regulations fosters responsible fishing methods, preventing overexploitation of fish stocks, and contributes to the conservation of marine environments, ensuring the port operates in harmony with natural ecosystems and local communities.}, type={Article}, title={Analysing factors influenced the sustainable fishing port model in East Java Province, Indonesia}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/132977/2024-03-JWLD-16.pdf}, doi={10.24425/jwld.2024.151561}, keywords={eco-fishing port, economic, environment, socia, sustainable}, }
