About us

At the South Australian Tourism Commission (SATC), we’re passionate about South Australia and dedicated to making a positive impact on our tourism sector. We believe travel is about meaningful connections - not transactions - and that people crave experiences that enrich and inspire.

Our team champions the simple pleasures that make our state unique, working together to create authentic, memorable moments for visitors and locals alike. Guided by Aboriginal care for place and community, inspired by regenerative principles, and committed to diversity and belonging, we see tourism as a way to bring people closer - to each other, to our communities, and to the land we love.

At the SATC, you’ll find a team that’s collaborative, creative, and always striving to do things differently. Here, every voice counts and every story matters - you’ll be respected and make a meaningful impact as we celebrate shared values, diverse experiences, and collective success. We’re proud to champion South Australia’s spirit - warm, generous, and down-to-earth - and we’re committed to making our state a place where every visitor feels at home.
