Tourism Council WA - Broome Tourism Connect Event
Last month we travelled north, for the Tourism Council WA’s Tourism Connect Event in Broome. The event was held at the gorgeous Cable Beach Club Resort & Spa, and was well attended by locals in the tourism industry.
Attendees enjoyed a balmy Kimberley sunset, mixed with conversations about the upcoming season, and insights about the Western Australian tourism sector from the Tourism Council WA’s CEO, Evan Hall. As can be seen from the photographs, our solicitor Kim Jones even had some time for a fishing trip. All in the name of research of course.
