This study aims to map the distribution of natural regeneration of seedlings based on the type of mangrove stands in Kendari Bay. The type of quantitative research with survey methods, vegetation inventory was carried out by making belt transects, identifying types and compositions, then create spatial maps using Geographic Information System analysis. The results showed that mangrove stands in the Kendari Bay were dominated by clustered stands (66.64%), Sonneratia alba stands (22.12%), and Rhizophora mucronata stands (11.24%) and distributed 9 species of seedlings. Spatial distribution showedthat the clustered stands were dominated by the A. marina seedlings with KR 23.78% and FR 21.86%, then X. granatum KR 14.01 and FR 15.61%, B. gymnorrhiza KR 14.66% and FR 12.49%, S. alba KR 12.70% and FR 10.93%, R. apiculata with KR 7.82% and FR 12.49%. In S. alba stands is dominated by the S. alba with KR value of 44.08% and FR 26.44% followed by the R. mucronata with KR 20.39% and FR 37.52%. On the other hand, in R. mucronata stands, the dominance of the R. mucronata with a KR 58.66% and FR 31.25%, than B. gymnorrhiza seedlings with a KR 13.78% and FR 20.83%. Importance value index is shown by the type R. mucronata reaching 45.49%, then S. alba 37.33%, B. gymnorrhiza 31.49%, A. marina 25.06%, and R. apiculata 23.41% have the highest level of mastery in the community and their role in the stability of sustainable mangrove ecosystems in the Kendari Bay Area
