Journey Beyond, Australia's leading experiential tourism group, has launched Island Connections, a new national brand for its recently acquired SeaLink marine operations. This initiative aims to unite ferry and coastal services under one identity, connecting travellers to some of Australia's most remote and distinctive island destinations.
Island Connections will operate across Bruny Island in Tasmania, the Whitsundays, K'gari Fraser Island, the Tiwi Islands, Groote Eylandt, and Darwin-Mandorah. This service will provide a seamless travel experience for guests, linking them to extraordinary locations across the country. Journey Beyond's marine operations currently carry over 400,000 guests annually, with the group operating more than 150 vessels and welcoming 2.6 million guests each year.
Jennifer Vandekreeke, Managing Director of Journey Beyond's Experiences and Attractions division, highlighted the significance of the new brand. "What makes Island Connections exciting is the opportunity to bring these marine services together whilst celebrating what makes each destination unique," she said. Vandekreeke emphasised the importance of supporting local communities and sharing the unique stories and character of these destinations with a broader audience.
Bookings for Island Connections are now open, offering travellers the chance to explore Australia's unique island landscapes. This new venture is expected to enhance accessibility to these remote areas, fostering tourism and supporting local communities
