Visit Isle of Man has unveiled its 3-year plan for the Island.

It comes as the agency hosted its ninth annual Industry Tourism Day at the Villa Marina yesterday, which attracted over 100 people.

The agency's ambitions include attracting 340,000 visitors a year to the Island by 2023 - in the hopes of them spending £159 million.

The strategy sets out six main targets - including visitor experience, promotion and marketing and product innovation.

The Visit Isle of Man Agency was established in April 2018.
