Yes, I believe Akula is a kiwi. The subject of their second sentence is New Zealand, they're referring to Australia as the "West Island".

344,700 / 365 = 944.4 Australian tourists a day

Sorry but your made a wrong assumption here.

If 300 persons remain 10 days during a month of 30 days, you have an average of 100 persons a day, not 10 (300/30) persons a day.

So I'd rather say there is an average of almost 7 000 Australians a day (assuming the average duration there is 7/8 days).

And if you concentrate more people during the hollidays periods I guess there are periods with almost 50 000 Australians in Fiji.

@limewell Correct (for the mean number of Aussie tourists per day), assuming that the year in question is not a leap year.

Doesn't sound like much on paper but trust me, they'll make sure you know they're there. Once you adjust the stats for loud obnoxiousness per capita, you'll find that the visitor to resident ratio almost reaches parity.

There's about 100,000 Fijians resident in Australia so a lot of this would be expats visiting family back home.

It's got nothing to do with the Australian population though - It's relative to the population of Fiji.

Not really. Australians are generally more conditioned to travelling for long distances. Combine that with family/cultural ties and the convenience of holidaying in a country where the English language prevails.

I'm surprised that the UAE doesn't feature given its international flight hub status

The UK only has the Pitcairn Islands and Chagos Islands that are close to Australia, and both are very difficult to travel to. The USA has American Samoa, which doesn't seem like it would be very popular, considering Samoa, Tonga, Vanuatu, etc, don't make it. I think a lot of Australians do travel to Hawaii, which of course is part of the US.

I was surprised that Papua New Guinea isn't on there since it's practically swimming distance from Australia, but looking it up it appears that PNG doesn't have a whole lot in the way of a tourist industry.

Yeah me too. Ive met many Aussies in Canada and i thought that since they're culturally more or less similar and they're both English speaking, it would be on the list. Im guessing the distance is a limiting factor. Most of the other countries on this list are close to Australia

I'll bet it's skewed toward the Pacific coast, and Hawaii, Los Angeles and San Francisco are just much more popular than Vancouver. Not taking anything away from Canada's charms, but those are worldwide hotspots for tourism.

I would imagine it's mostly Filipino Australians who are visiting their relatives in the Philippines. Filipinos are the fifth-highest foreign-born population of Australia.
