A designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, Queensland's gorgeous Great
Barrier Reef stretches 1,400 miles down the east coast of Australia.
Endless diving adventures can be had around its 600 islands and 2,900
individual reefs.
As the earth's largest reef system, you can see just
about everything when you go diving at the Great Barrier Reef. Dwarf
minke whales, manta rays, sharks and cuttlefish parade around in
abundance.
The turtles and sea snakes are supersized. Outer reefs explode with
color as clownfish dart in and out of their anemones. Electric purple
anthias and schools of yellow snapper swim in all directions. Keep your
eyes peeled for bumphead parrotfish and giant potato cod. The Reef's
wrecks have so much to see, you'll need several dives to take it all in.
