We acknowledge and respect Aboriginal peoples as South Australia’s first peoples and recognise them as traditional owners and occupants of land and waters in South Australia. Our Murray River Lakes and Coorong region’s tourism industry supports spiritual, social, heritage and cultural beliefs and values of Aboriginal people. This is beyond a dictionary definition of ‘Country’ on a map and includes stories, resources and places with a connection to ancestors and often being the custodians and caretakers of their land.
