Destination Port Stephens (DPS) is a non-profit, incorporated body supported by Port Stephens Council (PSC), owned by members and autonomously managed by a board of nine industry representatives. We conduct activities on behalf of our members; for the betterment of the region as a destination; to stimulate the local economy and ultimately provide the lifestyle benefits we have grown to love. Funding for DPS marketing activities is sourced primarily from the annual investment from PSC and other strategic partners plus hard-won grants but ultimately, it is up to industry – the members – to support the organisation that, in the main, is responsible for the success of the visitor economy that is the life blood of our region.
