3 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This destination strategic plan was undertaken as part of the unit of study TOU303
Tourism Management at Murdoch University and coordinated by Dr Jim Macbeth. This
report addresses issues relating to the Shire of Gingin that flow from the completion of
the Indian Ocean Drive and it subsequent impact on the shire. This report develops key
recommendations for the Shire of Gingin to successfully align with the surrounding
shires to strengthen brand awareness on a domestic and international level.

The town of Gingin lies approximately eighty – three kilometres north east of Perth just
off the Brand Highway. The proposed Indian Ocean Drive will link Lancelin to other
northern regions. This will not only drive the tourism market, but provide better access to
essential support services for residents living in the area. Tourism at this destination
could be increased by the development of a strong brand and image. There are primarily
traditional farms in the area; wheat, sheep and cattle. There is a strong emphasis on
natural environmental attractions, such as trail walks and recreational tourism, such as
swimming and fishing.

The proposed Lancelin to Cervantes Project involves the continued construction of the
Indian Ocean Drive. The road is expected to be a sixty – five kilometer extension of the
current Lancelin Road, joining at Pinnacles Drive. At this stage the proposed road will
cut through a small section of the Nilgen Nature Reserve but the main impact will be the
road going through the Wanagarren and Nambung Nature Reserves.

Both the Shire of Gingin and the Tourism WA representatives indicated that there is
existing friction between the coastal and inland communities. This appears to be a result
of the different interests and concerns of the residents. The perceived outcomes for inland
communities appear to be negligible; in comparison the coastal communities who had far
greater proactive approach to the potential for introduction of new industries,
employment opportunities and the development of better amenities for residents.
4 2.0 Vision Statement
To establish a sustainable development and tourism strategy that embraces the diversity
of the region. A strong local community will maximize tourism potential and increase
opportunities for local businesses and residents.


3.0 Mission
Our mission is to develop a viable strategic plan to strengthen the identity of the Shire of
Gingin, as well as increase tourism for the shire to coincide with the completion of Indian
Ocean Drive.


4.0 Goals and Objectives
This report addresses issues relating to the Shire of Gingin that flow from the completion
of the Indian Ocean Drive (IOD) and it subsequent impact on the shire. It is vital to
remember that the purpose of tourism planning is to maintain the uniqueness of a
destination while successfully improving the regional and local economy. A strong
strategic plan will outline the shire’s future direction, performance targets and strategy in
becoming a thriving tourism destination. This is an ongoing process which encompasses
the Shire of Gingin’s vision, objectives, strategy, and approach.

• Create a strategy that encompasses all aspects of the Gingin tourism product by
2008 focusing on the development of high yield and niche tourism markets, in
particular 3 – 4 star accommodation. There also needs to be further development
of events, with a focus on 4WD adventure tourism, surfing and wind surfing.
• Develop key recommendations for the Shire of Gingin to successfully align with
the surrounding shires to strengthen brand awareness on a domestic and
international level.
• Give key recommendations to the Shire of Gingin to develop accredited tourism
education, training and resources for local businesses to improve product and
service quality.
5 • Research of existing strategies and planning documents for the Shire of Gingin
will enable key considerations of triple bottom line indicators to be identified.
This will extend to include the sustainability of potable water, key infrastructure
and services, and preservation of natural assets.
• In the event of an economic downturn for small businesses inland due to the shift
in traffic flow from the introduction of the Indian Ocean Drive key issues will be
raised concerning strategic planning for small businesses and residents.





6 5.0 DESTINATION OVERVIEW

5.1 Background
The town of Gingin lies approximately eighty – three kilometres north east of Perth just
off the Brand Highway (Sydney Morning Herald, 2006). The first settlers to the area were
Robert Dale and Edward Barrett–Lennard who gained a lease from the Swan River
colony and began farming in the area in 1832 (Gingin Travel, 2006). The town was
gazetted on December 12, 1871 (Heritage Council of Western Australia, 1998).

The proposed Indian Ocean Drive will link Lancelin to other northern regions. This will
not only drive the tourism market, but provide better access to essential support services
for residents living in the area. Due to Gingin’s close proximity to Perth, the local
recreational activities and optimal weather conditions, the Shire of Gingin is currently
experiencing significant growth in the residential population. Gingin has become one of
the fastest growing rural shires in Western Au
