Small-scale fishers face maritime risks related to weather, navigation practices, machinery condition, and the availability of safety equipment. This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge and practical skills of fishers in Darubiah Village regarding navigation safety, basic vessel machinery checks, and life-jacket use. The program was conducted on 16 July 2026 at the Darubiah Village Hall, Bulukumba Regency, and involved 20 fishers aged 19–68 years. Activities combined interactive lectures, demonstrations, hands-on practice, discussion, a pre-test, a post-test, and a satisfaction questionnaire. Analysis of the 10-item assessment showed that the mean score increased from 1.80 in the pre-test to 9.60 in the post-test. In the post-test, 12 participants scored 10 and 8 participants scored 9. Regarding satisfaction, 70% rated the program “very good” and 30% “good”; all participants considered the material useful. These descriptive results indicate that contextual education supported by demonstrations and practice can strengthen fishers’ safety literacy. Periodic mentoring and additional emergency simulations are recommended to encourage sustained safety behavior.
