Tourism Matters

Posted on September 1st, 2010 | No Comments »

It’s that time of year again, when we welcome the whales back to the Bay. We are all looking forward to a bumper year to erase some of the recent disappointments.

It is pleasing to see some operators preparing packages with other operators to further enhance their operations and the experience that visitors will have on the Fraser Coast. We believe this will be the future in tourism.
Something of concern to all of us that occurred this week. We had some visitors at Aquavue on Tuesday who were ecstatic that they had found somewhere in the Bay to hire a sailing Catamaran. Upon speaking to them later that day we were informed that they had been told by a booking office in the Bay that they could not hire a Catamaran here and that they would have to go to Rainbow beach to do so. If you take this to another level, then what other activities and tours are being compromised by some with their sights only focused on commissions and not on growing Fraser Coast tourism generally.
