You’ve likely seen Tourism Whitsundays around town or mentioned in the news - but what exactly do we do, and how can local tourism operators benefit?
We’re a not-for-profit marketing organisation dedicated to promoting our beautiful region, supporting tourism product development, and delivering visitor services. Our core focus is to increase visitation, extend the length of stay, and encourage dispersal across Airlie Beach, Bowen, Collinsville, Proserpine, and the Islands - ultimately driving more visitor spend into the region.
Funded by Tourism and Events Queensland and Whitsunday Regional Council, we deliver strategic marketing campaigns that showcase the Whitsundays to the world. From managing destination social media and securing media features to working with influencers and travel agents, everything we do is about putting the region front and centre in people’s travel plans.
Tourism operators and businesses can invest in a membership with us, gaining opportunities to be featured in marketing activity, attend trade events, and access valuable tools, including industry insights, training, and networking. Eligible members also receive discounted membership with the Queensland Tourism Industry Council, Queensland’s peak industry body.
Whether you’re a long-time operator or new to the tourism space, we’d love for you to learn more about how Tourism Whitsundays can support you and help grow your business.
