    2022 FIREBALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS Hosted by the Royal Geelong Yacht Club www.rgyc.com.au www.visitgeelongbellarine.com.au February 2022 Photo: Andrew Davies FIREBALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS GEELONG 2022 On behalf of our Australian Fireball Sailors (IFAA) I’d like to welcome your interest about the next Fireball World Championship to be held at Royal Geelong Yacht Club (RGYC), near Melbourne, Australia. The organising team comprising RGYC and local IFAA leaders are going full steam ahead to make arrangements for an exciting and well planned regatta. They are leaving no stone unturned to have great race management, reliable end to end boat transport logistics, accommodation and transport information that provides plenty of options and a social program to cater for sailors and their family and friends. When we held the Australian Championship at RGYC in Feb 2019 we found most people could stay within walking distance of the club. There were plenty of restaurants and pubs just 1-2 blocks away from the club. The environment created a great opportunity to do some post race socialising at the club and then wander off in groups to explore and taste the variety of options available for dinner. During the regatta we experienced everything from light and tricky shifting breezes, champagne sailing at 12 -16 knots and stronger winds. The nearby coast, home to Bell’s Beach surfing and the Great Ocean Road offers a wealth of holiday options for people able to extend their stay to enjoy a longer visit to Australia in summer. We look forward to welcoming you to Geelong in 2022.

  • View Workforce Development Strategy
    GREAT OCEAN ROAD VISITOR ECONOMY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY JANUARY 2020 Acknowledgements The Great Ocean Road Workforce Strategy was facilitated by Great Ocean Road Regional Tourism, Funded by Regional Development Victoria through the Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Fund and supported by Surf Coast, Colac Otway and Corangamite Shires. Executive Summary This Workforce Development Strategy aims to address the visitor economy workforce needs in the Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Surf Coast Shire, Colac Otway Shire and the Corangamite Shire (referred to in this Report as the Study Area). These LGAs form part of the Great Ocean Road (GOR) tourism region. Great Ocean Road Regional Tourism (GORRT) has commissioned the development of this Workforce Development Strategy with funding from Regional Development Victoria (RDV). Visitation is concentrated in key destination towns The towns along the Great Ocean Road extending from Torquay in the East, including Lorne and Apollo Bay, the Otway hinterland, and through to Port Campbell in the West, experience the majority of the visitation to the Study Area with the Surf Coast LGA receiving more than 60% of visitors. These towns are the Study Area’s key tourism destination towns. Forecast Increased in visitation to the Study Area A forecast based on recent visitation trends shows that the Study Area will experience an increase of more than 970,000 visitors through to 2024. Population growth in Greater Melbourne, the Study Area’s primary catchment drives much of the growth as does as an increase in international visitation. This visitation will consist of domestic daytrips, domestic overnight and international visitors and varies across the three LGAs in the Study Area.
