Final Plan Develop a More Appealing Flinders Ranges and Outback SA of Tomorrow Waterbased Cruises and Experiences Cruise operators in Port Augusta have developed tour products that cater for different markets in a way that has helped to refocus attention on the water and the ecology of the marine and coastal environments of the Upper Spencer Gulf. The Waterways Strategy prepared for Port Augusta identifies the development potential of the waterfront for recreational and commercial boating. This will have a significant benefit for tourism in the future. In the short term existing operators should be supported to continue to develop their operations in response to market demand. The Cooper Creek Cruise has been withdrawn from operation this year leaving a significant gap in the tourism offering in Innamincka. Already some tour groups have cancelled their lunch or accommodation bookings as the cruise in the late afternoon was a primary driver for their visitation. Action Twenty Six: Ensure the provision of infrastructure and amenities to support existing water based tour operators in Port Augusta. Action Twenty Seven: Attract a new operator to Innamincka for Cruises on Cooper Creek. Urban & Regional Planning Solutions d:\frosa region istp\frosa region istp.doc Page 55
Final Plan Develop a More Appealing Flinders Ranges and Outback SA of Tomorrow Water Cruises – Port Augusta Cooper Creek 7.4 Existing Products to be Maintained and Enhanced Outback Pubs If there is one product that has universal appeal across all markets this is it. Everyone enjoys a counter meal, a cold beer and a yarn at the bar or around the fire. The food needs to be well cooked, value for money and most importantly the service needs to be warm, welcoming and attentive. Most pub goers are not looking for silver service but they do expect hearty country sized services and staff that take an extra interest in them. Some of the pubs in the region do this extremely well, others could definitely be improved. There are two possible approaches. You could identify and promote the pubs that are most likely to give visitors a positive experience or, alternatively, you could encourage those who are not doing so well to focus on improving their food and service standards. Ideally you would do both. (see Action Seven) 4WD Tours and Tag Alongs This product seems to be readily available and provided on a range of properties in the Flinders Ranges. There appear to be fewer opportunities advertised in the Outback, other than all inclusive point to point tours travelling through to Alice Springs and Uluru.
