10% increase in visitation indicates a strong caravan and camping sector

The South Coast Caravan, Camping and Holiday Expo, held in Batemans Bay, recorded a 10% increase in event visitation, supporting predictions from the Caravan and Camping Industry Association of NSW (CCIA) of a strong 2010 for the niche tourism sector.

The appeal of caravan and camping holidays is that they offer something for every budget from 5 star cabin accommodation through to the simple pleasures of camping under the stars.

With more Australians looking for value for money holidays as disposable incomes become tighter, caravan and camping getaways are a great way for families to reconnect. Holiday Parks offer quality facilities and activities that are afforded only by this type of lifestyle.

The South Coast Expo which was staged from 6 to 8 November saw some 14,320 flock to Mackay Park in Batemans Bay to see over 150 exhibitors displaying the latest caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers, holiday parks and leisure products just in time for the summer holidays.
