Aerial view of The Bluff, Victor Harbor

The Bluff, also known as Rosetta Head or Kongkengguwarr, is a much loved and iconic Victor Harbor landmark. It has significant environmental, recreation, tourism, heritage and cultural value. In recognition of this, the City of Victor Harbor, in association with Hatch, is working to develop a master plan that sets out a shared vision for this important asset.

The development of this master plan is both exciting and important. It provides us with a tool that will help us protect the things that our community most values about The Bluff at the same time as identifying opportunities to enhance this very special place in a way that reflects the shared community vision.

Council has recently completed an extensive consultation through which we heard the views, stories and opinions of around 900 voices. Through these conversations some clear themes emerged that really supported the idea of limiting development but implementing a number of enhancements that are sympathetic to the natural environment.

Things like making trails safer, providing more seating, defined spaces to take in the views and contemplate, looking at opportunities to share cultural stories and narrative, and re-wilding areas were just some of the common ideas.

A draft Master Plan has been prepared based on what we heard from community and key stakeholder groups. Council now wants to hear your feedback on the draft plan to make sure it represents the community's vision for The Bluff.
