Great Barrier Reef

  • Photos

There are certain places in the world that take your breath away. Where you step back and simply smile in wonder. The Great Barrier Reef is one of those places.

Internationally recognised as the world's largest and healthiest coral reef, the Great Barrier Reef provides world-class experiences at a world-class destination. Scuba-diving and snorkelling, sailing, bare boating, cruise shipping and expedition cruising are just some of the world class water-based activities on offer.

Stretching over 2300kms - from Tropical North Queensland in the north, right down to Bundaberg in the south - the Great Barrier Reef is easily accessible from various access points, including Port Douglas, Cairns, Townsville, Airlie Beach, Seventeen Seventy and Bundaberg.

Try this on for size: at approximately 350 000 kms2 in size, the Great Barrier Reef is the only living structure on earth that can be seen from outer space! 

Coming soon! Great Barrier Reef documentary airing on the Nine Network. This series sets a new benchmark in underwater filming technology. Remote mini-cameras, motion controlled underwater time-lapse and remotely operated vehicles have taken cameras where none have previously been; capturing the previously unseen magic of the reef - from its immense scale to the most intimate detail.
