Indonesia as an archipelago with the second longest coastline in the world is very vulnerable to coastal disasters, one of which is tidal flooding caused by sea level rise. This research examines the community’s adaptation strategy in facing tidal floods and its impact on regional resilience, with a focus on Bedono Village, Sayung Subdistrict, Demak Regency. This research used descriptive qualitative methods through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature study. The results showed that tidal floods have changed the physical, economic, social, and environmental conditions of the community, triggering vulnerability and reducing regional resilience. Adaptation strategies carried out by the community include physical adaptation (modification of houses and infrastructure), economic (change of profession), and social (adjustment of social activities and education). However, these adaptations are still limited due to low community capacity and lack of government support. The main constraints faced are the increasing intensity of tidal flooding, low strategic value of the village, limited local government budget, and lack of infrastructure. Tidal flooding has negatively impacted five of the eight dimensions of regional resilience, namely geography, natural resources, demography, economy, and socio-culture. However, the ideological, political, and security dimensions remain stable. This research emphasizes the importance of cross-sectoral support and long-term policies to strengthen the resilience of disaster-affected coastal areas.
