Great Barrier Reef, Australia



"Australia is a phenomenally beautiful country, and every time I go away and come back, it never ceases to amaze me." ~ David Wenham

What Attracts Tourists to The Great Barrier Reef?


Australia's top tourism treasure, the World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef, is the largest coral reef on the planet. With climate change at the forefront, travellers are flocking to see this magnificent natural spectacle sooner rather than later, as warming ocean temperatures are causing large-scale coral die-off, especially along the reef's far northern stretches.

If you love nature or particularly water activities, the Great Barrier Reef is for you.
