This study aims to analyze the factors causing fish bombing in North Halmahera Regency, North Maluku Province, Indonesia as in the past three years, there have been seven cases that occurred in this area. This study also analyzes the mitigation efforts of the North Halmahera Water Police against blast fishing. This is empirical legal research or non-dogmatic research which views humans as a social phenomenon because this research focuses on recognizing people’s behavior. The results showed that fishing using explosives was still rampant in North Halmahera Regency. The factors that cause this include: low economic income, low education which results in the people’s limited insight on protecting coral reef ecosystems, and weak law enforcement. Then, the countermeasures carried out by the water police face serious obstacles, such as a shortage of field personnel and a very small budget available.
