Location description: The Great Barrier Reef has captured man`s imagination since its first discovery. Travellers have sailed over its waters, many have written tales about the reef, all islands and cays have been discovered and set foot upon, but still underwater there`s a land so vast that in 10,000 years will not be completely explored.
To scuba divers, Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef represents some of the finest and most exotic diving and snorkelling in the world. The Great Barrier Reef is a massive chain of coral reefs and beyond this structure of living organisms lies the cleanest body of water on the globe!
It is a wonderful, exciting and indeed memorable experience to dive the Great Barrier Reef. On a diving holiday you`ll swap dive stories with others, you will encounter mostly smooth seas, you will dive beautiful reefs, deep drop offs, see gorgeous marine life, explore tunnels and caves, and bask in the sun between dives on the deck of a boat or sun drenched beach.
Whether your interests lie with day trips, live aboards and extended diving expeditions, learning to dive, or advanced training for certified divers, North Queensland and the Great Barrier Reef can meet all of your needs.
Earth visible from the moon. One of the natural wonders of the world, the World Heritage Great Barrier Reef holds a fascination for overseas visitors and Australians alike. It is the largest coral reef in the world, made up of 2500 separate reefs, it stretches over 2000 km from the northern tip of the continental shelf near Papua New Guinea, to Bundaberg in the south. The 540 islands of the Great Barrier Reef are of two distinct types, continental and coral cay. With a landmass which can contain nearly five Japans, seven Britains and is half the size of Texas - there certainly is a lot to see! Its ecosystem supports the greatest concentration of life on this planet with its resident marine life including 1,500 species of fish, 350 different kinds of coral, 4000 species of molluscs and 10,000 species of sponges. It also provides breeding areas for humpback whales, sea turtles dugong and seabirds. Hundreds of species of algae, including seaweeds, also live on the reef as a vital part of the reef system. In 1975 the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) was established. In recognition of its universal value, the Great Barrier Reef was inscribed on the World Heritage list in October 1981 and is now a Marine Park managed by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority. GBRMPA`s aim is to increase people`s understanding of the reef and ensure that it is used in the most enjoyable and least harmful fashion under the auspices of a marine park permit system.
As well as being the most significant drawcard for visitors to North Queensland, it also represents the foundations for local commercial and recreational fishing industries.
