Great Barrier Reef

The waters of the Great Barrier Reef provide the world's busiest and most varied marine habitats. Marine life is in abundance and perfect for diving and snorkelling. The varied colours of the reef's fish and other marine life will astound the visitor with colour combinations that artists haven't even dreamed of.

Several islands of the Great Barrier Reef are built on coral cays and many have their own fringing reef and national parks are common on the islands and park rules apply. Island resort activities vary according to the locale and style of each resort. Typical activities are swimming, snorkelling, scuba diving, coral viewing, reef walking, sailing, yacht charter, jet skiing, parasailing, sailboarding, kayaking, catamarans, canoes, big game fishing and whale watching in Queensland.
