About the Plan
The Kangaroo Island Destination Management Plan (DMP) provides a strategic framework to guide the sustainable growth of tourism across our region. It identifies key priorities, opportunities, and actions required to enhance Kangaroo Island’s appeal as a destination, while ensuring long-term benefits for our community, economy, and environment.
Developed through extensive consultation with industry stakeholders, government agencies, and the wider community, the DMP captures our shared vision for a thriving tourism sector that protects the natural and cultural values that make Kangaroo Island so unique.
