Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced a $60 million tourism package in a bid to fast-track the return of international visitors to regional destinations heavily impacted by a loss of tourists.
The investment includes $45 million for Tourism Australia to promote areas such as the Gold Coast, NSW north coast, Sunshine Coast, Great Ocean Road, the Whitsundays and the Hunter.
Tourism Tropical North Queensland will also receive a $15 million injection in order to attract visitors to the Great Barrier Reef.
The move comes a month after Australia reopened its borders to double-vaccinated international travellers.
