FIGURES released by Tourism Research Australia show the total number of interstate visitors to Western Australia grew by 4.8 per cent in the year ending March 2018.
The results of the National Visitor Survey (NVS) also shows the total number of intrastate visitors grew by 3.6 per cent and daytrips by 4.2 per cent over the same period.
However the average length of overnight stays dropped from 9.3 to 7.4 nights – largely driven by a fall in the nights spent by people visiting friends and relatives or here for business purposes. One positive sign was interstate holidaymakers increasing by 18,000 when compared to the previous year, which represents a 4.7 per cent rise.
