located in Kotabaru Regency, South Kalimantan with an area of about 28,437,612 ha. TKNR region in which
there is a potential biodiversity of biotic natural resources that is high, while the authenticity of its habitat in
the form of mangrove plants are still well preserved. The potential for biodiversity is the pride of the people of
South Kalimantan and a national and international responsibility. The purpose of this study is to analyze the
uniqueness of the physical form of TKNR region, to cause the area of this nature reserve for 37 years the
authenticity of the condition of its habitat is still well preserved regardless of the excellent management
conducted by the authority of Natural Resource Conservation Center of South Kalimantan. The method used is
to examine secondary data, field surveys and integrated with remote sensing satellite imagery. The results
show that The uniqueness of its physical form is composed of tidal plains, many natural river tributaries
encircle Kelumpang Gulf, growing mangrove vegetation, its compact formation grows along the coast of
Kelumpang Gulf forming a green belt, access road to this area is very limited, far from human activity, Its
tributaries are rarely used by local populations, the water conditions are calm, isolated, mud deposits formed
overgrown by mangrove vegetation in groups resembling small islands add to the uniqueness, become a
