“…At the level of zoning methods, more consideration should be given to the relationship between suitability and adaptability. Differences between the current background conditions and future background conditions that will change with economic and social development can be considered, and suitability management strategies can be proposed to allow for the zoning's dynamic adjustment in order to realize the sustainable development [100,101] of the island space and resources.…”

Due to the special geographical location and unique ecosystem of islands, appropriate development and protection of islands is important for promoting the sustainable development of islands. By using the Pingtan Islands as an example, this study constructed a system of suitability evaluation indexes for marine ecological space, marine agricultural production space and marine construction space under the principle of land–sea coordination. To evaluate the spatial suitability of the sea area around islands, a GIS spatial analysis method and a hierarchical analysis method (AHP) were used, which provided useful references for the integration of land and sea and for developing islands sustainably. The research results showed that the suitability area of ecological space in the Pingtan Islands accounted for around 64.3%, the construction space accounted for around 2.1% and the agricultural production space accounted for 33.5%.

The main constraint of strategic development and management of rural areas is rooted in resource management and insufficient holistic approach to all available resources and its interdependence. Management of such areas involves thorough planning on all levels and management of changes to achieve the best competitive advantage possible. In this paper, the focus is on the strategic management of the destination (Croatian islands), the concept of sustainable development of rural areas on Croatian islands, level of permanent education of local population on the concept of sustainable development and existence of even distribution of opportunities that can enable local community to achieve socio-economic benefit. The primary survey is conducted in the observed area in 2019. The total sample of respondents is 243.
