South Pacific Tourism Exchange

The concept of the South Pacific Tourism Exchange (SPTE) was born due to the need to offer a one-stop shop to you, our valued international travel partners to meet our regional tourism products and suppliers from the islands.

SPTE offers the convenience of meeting all Pacific island destinations and a cost-effective platform for our Pacific Island partners to travel from all corners of the Pacific Ocean to the region to exchange their exciting products to you, our international buyers from all across the globe.

The SPTO successfully launched and executed a regional tourism and trade event for the Pacific islands and its first SPTE event in Auckland, New Zealand in May 2014. SPTE is an excellent platform to meet and network with over 90 tourism operators (National tourism offices, ITOs, regional airlines, hotel operators, tour and excursion operators etc.) from SPTO’s 20 Pacific Island member countries including American Samoa, Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, French Polynesia, Kiribati, Nauru, Marshall Islands, Niue, New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea, Rapanui Island, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Timor Leste, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Wallis & Futuna.

The 2020 SPTE was cancelled due to COVID-19 but do watch this space for updates.
