See the wonders of Australia's own Great Barrier Reef. Cruise out to Fantasea's pontoon - moored right on the edge of the reef itself and spend the day snorkelling or diving. Take a semi-submersible ride along the reef wall or watch myriads of colourful fish from the underwater viewing atrium. You can even stay overnight on a popular reefsleep and watch the coral change colours at sunset. Take a fast boat out to Hardy's reef to snorkle and dive or enjoy a scenic flight or helicopter ride over the splendid awe-inspiring vastness of this natural wonder.

The Great Barrier Reef is undisputed as one of the world's most important natural assets. It is the largest natural feature on earth stretching more than 2,300km along the northeast coast of Australia from the northern tip of Queensland to just north of Bundaberg.

The area abounds with wildlife, including dugong and green turtles, varieties of dolphins and whales, more than 1500 species of fish, 4000 types of mollusc and more than 200 species of birdlife. The Great Barrier Reef system consists of more than 3000 reefs which range in size from 1 hectare to over 10,000 hectares in area. The reef is scattered with beautiful islands and idyllic coral cays and covers more than 300,000 square kilometres.
