Good afternoon,

The good news for tourism in South Australia keeps coming this week, with some key announcements – including further easing of our state's border restrictions. The news comes as interest in South Australia as a tourist destination continues to grow. Visits to southaustralia.com are up more than 60 per cent year on year, with intrastate visits up 92 per cent and interstate visits up 32 per cent. We are working hard to keep our state top of mind across the domestic market, and this data is a promising sign for our industry. 

I look forward to continuing to work together as we chart our way forward. 

Rodney Harrex
Chief executive
