A WORLD NATURAL WONDER

Australia's Great Barrier Reef is great in every way. One Of the world's Seven natural wonders, it is a prized World Heritage Area, the largest coral reef system and the biggest living structure on the planet. It is an area so large that it can be seen from space.

Located off the Queensland coast, the Reef is composed of 3000 individual reef systems, 760 fringe reefs, and about 300 coral cays. This complex maze of habitats provides refuge for a variety of marine life, plants and animals — from ancient sea turtles, reef fish and 134 species of sharks and rays, to 400 different hard and soft corals full of seaweeds.

As one of the world's most popular tourist attractions, the Reef has a global reputation for its turquoise waters, corals, abundant life and over 900 islands. Together with the fishing industry, tourism is about $6 billion annually. But the Reef is far more than an economic resource. It is a network of marine sanctuaries of unparalleled ecological importance — a place where beauty transcends business, where nature is what matters.
