With so many Victorian favourites already heavily booked, Visit Victoria CEO Brendan McClements suggests travellers choose "the road less travelled" and try to discover new, lesser-known holiday spots, perhaps around the Murray, Port Fairy and Gippsland. However, more so than previous years, we're seeing growing interest for regional and in-land destinations across both states, like Albury NSW and Grampians Victoria with an increase in interest of over 150 per cent." "Looking at this year's trends, the latest data shows coastal favourites in NSW and Victoria continue to be most popular. However interest for interstate travel has grown in recent weeks, as travel confidence grows. "Aussies are preferencing intrastate holidays and road trips closer to home, where they can book with confidence and quickly re-evaluate their travel plans, if needed. "There is no doubt this year's summer holiday period is going to be one of the busiest yet," says Wotif managing director Daniel Finch.
At Wotif, it's Byron and the North Coast, the Northern Rivers, South Coast, Newcastle and the Hunter Valley, as well as the Mornington Peninsula, Great Ocean Road, Geelong, Gippsland and Daylesford. Their site has seen Byron, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour, Newcastle and Yamba most in demand in NSW, and in Victoria, Halls Gap, Warrnambool, Apollo Bay, Bright and Lorne. It's amazing to see that the desire to get back to travel remains so strong, and we're expecting a very busy travel period." area manager for Australia Melissa Ellison said: "We're excited to see the appetite for travel is bigger than ever with the opportunity for Australians to experience the summer together once again.
