This research aims to identify the changes of mangrove area in Pangpang Bay conservation area during 2014-2018 by using Landsat 8 imagery. Composite of 564 RGB on Landsat 8 imagery was used for identification of mangrove and the classification method used in this research was maximum likelihood classification (MLC). The classification result indicated 3 land cover classes: water bodies, land and mangrove. The result of 564 RGB composite on Landsat 8 imagery showed that there was an increase of 283.04 ha in total mangrove area from 2014 to 2018.
