DST is focused on growing tourism visitation, increasing yield and regional dispersal.
Incorporating 11 local government partners, industry membership and a partnership with Tourism Tasmania and the Department of State Growth.
Our region features some of Tasmania’s great icons, as well as many of the hidden treasures and bespoke experiences that allow visitors to recharge, reconnect and ‘come down for air’. It’s our job to help tourism businesses deliver the best possible experience and to help visitors unearth those treasures.
