4) Support the ongoing development of key visitor attractions in the region<br />

The Sunset Coast region already has a rich base of natural and built attractions. The natural assets are paramount and can be further enhanced through provision of<br />

improved visitor amenity, access and interpretation. In addition, with the planned opening of Indian Ocean Drive there is the capacity to renew and expand the offerings<br />

around this key drive route.<br />

5) Improve boating facilities in the region<br />

A lack of adequate boat launching and recreational facilities in northern parts of the region, particularly in towns like Guilderton, is placing strain on existing facilities and<br />

reducing the potential of the region to spread visitation across townships. With expected increases in traffic brought about by the development of the Indian Ocean Drive,<br />

an improvement in these boat launching facilities along with improvements to basic amenities such as carparks and toilets is seen as important.<br />
