Marine Dynamics won the Provincial Lilizela Award for Best Visitor Experience in the Marine Adventure category.
Lilizela Tourism Awards, recognises and rewards those individuals and businesses that place South Africa high on the agenda as a must-visit tourist destination. An initiative of the National Department of Tourism (NDT) and spearheaded by South African Tourism (SAT), the Lilizela Awards have been taking place since 2012 with an annual, star-studded ceremony.
The local travel industry’s best products, experiences and people – across a range of categories are judged by a 28-member panel of experts from all over the industry. The public contribute 80% of the scores, through voting and trip advisor reviews, and the judges consider this when evaluating the finalists. Marine Dynamics marketing manager, Zile de Kock, was at the Cape Town function to receive the award from Alan Winde, Minister of Economic Opportunities, Western Cape.
“Marine Dynamics won the National award in 2016 and we hope to do so again. I have surrounded myself with an amazing team of people and we are always in search of excellence. We thank all of our fantastic and long term partners in tourism for their support,” said Wilfred Chivell, CEO of Marine Dynamics.
The national winners will be announced on 27 October at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.
