Opportunities in nature-based tourism including ecotourism
Queensland has a large number of natural and protected areas, and demand for nature-based and ecotourism activities is strong and expected to grow in the future.
The Queensland Government encourages private investment in low impact, sustainable ecotourism opportunities in protected areas that focus on the presentation and appreciation of an area's natural and cultural values.
A high priority on conservation, best practice and low impact ecotourism is at the heart of the Nature Conservation Act 1992.
The Queensland Government has a number of strategies and plans that assist with planning and delivering immersive ecotourism experiences in Queensland's spectacular national and marine parks.
