Palm Island Council Pushes for Eco-Tourism
THURSDAY, 27 SEPTEMBER 2007
An eco-tourism program is being planned by the Palm Island Council.
The eco-tourism program includes historic tours, fishing projects, and kayaking adventures. Councillor Foster confided that she's confident that the government will support the eco-tourism program.
"Palm Island is a beautiful place and sometimes mainstream Australian doesn't get to see that beauty ... they always see the negative stuff and the bad things that's been happening on Palm, but one of the things that we want to do through eco-tourism is to get the positive things in our community and show the wider community the natural assets that we do have," she said.
