More than $500,000 worth of free tourism vouchers will be handed out at Perth Airport this week to welcome interstate and international arrivals as the WA border reopens.
The State Government promotion, through Tourism WA, will begin after midnight on March 3 and encourage visitors to support local tourism and experience businesses during their trip to Western Australia.
The campaign will provide 3,400 'Gifts From Western Australia' two-person vouchers, ranging in value from $150 to $2,200.
The vouchers offer tourism experiences from about 20 different operators, including skydiving at Rottnest Island, swimming with dolphins or touring Penguin Island, sunset stargazing at the Pinnacles or a three-day tour of Margaret River.
The giveaway includes 1000 vouchers for StudyPerth to target to international students.
Tourism WA is also delivering 200 toy quokkas to Qantas to be distributed on the first flights from Sydney and Melbourne, promoting Rottnest Island and 'The World's Happiest Animal' to WA arrivals.
WA's full border opening will allow for safe travel from interstate and overseas from 12.01am March 3, with vaccination and testing requirements on arrival.
"Western Australia is a safe, vibrant and friendly place to visit and live - full of opportunity for everyone and offering some of the most remarkable tourism experiences on Earth," Premier Mark McGowan said.
"When interstate and international travel returns in full on March 3, we want to encourage visitors to experience all we can offer, while ensuring local tourism operators enjoy the benefits."
