Management Strategies

Rottnest Island Authority has developed a number of management strategies and plans which operate within the overarching Rottnest Island Management Plan and further define measures for the island's success.

Rottnest Island Management Plan 2023 - 2028

The new Rottnest Island Management Plan (RIMP) 2023-2028 focuses on conservation, sustainability, infrastructure, visitor experience, cultural heritage and building meaningful partnerships with Aboriginal communities, industry and commercial operators.

The plan was developed in consultation with key stakeholders, advisory groups and island businesses and was also open for a period of public comment from March to May 2023.

It’s the most significant planning document for the Rottnest Island Authority and must be reviewed every five years.

The Rottnest Island Management Plan 2023-2028 (3 MB) replaces the previous plan which was due to expire in December 2024.
