The park was proclaimed in 1972 under National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972 replacing earlier protected area status as a Fauna Conservation Reserve which was proclaimed in 1967. The protected area status exists to protect the island as a breeding area for sea birds such as little penguins and silver gulls.[4]

The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category IA protected area.[1] In 1980, it was included on the now-defunct Register of the National Estate.[5]
