The problem of sexuality is a complicated problem for adolescents because adolescence is a period where
 a person is faced with various challenges and problems that have an impact on adolescent psychology. The
 purpose of this study was to explore the impact of risky sexual behavior on adolescents’ psychological
 well-being in the Coastal Area of Rajik Village, Simpang Rimba District. The design of this study is
 qualitative with a phenomenological hermeneutic approach. The number of participants in this study was
 five participants consisting of three teenagers, one counseling guidance teacher, and one teenager who
 became pregnant before marriage. Data collection methods in this study are in-depth interviews and field
 notes. Data analysis uses hermeneutic approach1. This study received two main categories, namely: (1) risky
 sexual behavior; (2) psychological impact. Adolescents who engage in risky sexual behavior are holding
 hands, ever hugging, ever kissing, ever touching sensitive body parts, and having sexual intercourse in the
 form of intercourse, besides the psychological effects that occur in adolescents are feeling anxious, afraid,
 embarrassed and guilty and sin and consider things normal and natural to do. We encourage further research
