Great Barrier Reef One of the true marvels of the natural world, the Great Barrier Reef runs the entire length of Queensland, Australia. The reef, created by living coral over the span of 18 million years, is 2000 Km (1243 Mi) long and in places more than 500 meters (1640 Ft) thick. Coral is very particular about the conditions in which it grows, and the waters off the coast of Queensland prove ideal for sustaining both living coral and the hard "skeleton" left when it dies. There are 400 types of coral found in the reef, and thousands of species of fish, sponge, crustaceans and molluscs, some of which can be dangerous.
Approximately 2600 smaller reefs comprise the Great Barrier Reef, making this the most extensive reef system in the world. The reef can be found 50km (30mi) from the shoreline, and is a fantastic site for diving and snorkelling. Great places to base your trip to the reef are Bundaberg in the south, Gladstone, Mackay, and Cairns in the north with points between. |
