摘要

This paper explores the perceptions of tourists and tourism-related business operators on the impacts of water scarcity during what was the warmest decade in recorded Australian history. Data derives from qualitative interviews with residents and itinerants from eight settlements in desert South Australia, a region also referred to colloquially as the 'outback'. The results show an incongruity between the expectations of the travelers who are attracted to the desert regions and their demands for fresh water which are beyond what is sustainable. Despite the chosen desert destination, tourists reported on a strong desire for water in a range of daily activities. Business operators at times expressed their difficulty in meeting the fresh water demands of the travelers, in particular the campervan trade; and their frustration with the high water use of visitors. These results highlight the need for careful planning and on-going investment and infrastructure support in remote desert settlements to ensure that development of the industry is not at the expense of the wellbeing of resident populations.
