Question For Backpackers Hostels
I have a question for backpackers hostels in Mission Beach.
Why don't you advertise the fact that people can stay in Mission Beach and work on the farms in Tully because there is transport available? No disrespect to Tully but, if you're on holiday in Australia, most people would rather stay in Mission Beach than there owing to the fact that a) we've got a beach and b) they haven't.
The reason I'm asking this question is that I've been in the visitors centre a couple of times when people have wandered in and asked about working on farms in Mission Beach. Worse still, the visitors centre haven't mentioned the transport offered by farms in Tully to and from work so these backpackers have gone off and stayed in Tully just so that they could earn some cash.
Seems like a big hole in the Mission Beach backpackers market to me. Tell people, SHOUT it from the rooftops, advertise it on your websites (if you've got one that people can find). Anything, just get more money coming in to Mission Beach and give people who have to work their way around Australia a choice of staying a) somewhere very nice or b) somewhere ok.
