GREAT BARRIER REEF,  Australia...

The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park begins at the tip of Cape York in Queensland and extends south past the Tropic of Capricorn almost to Bundaberg. It's area is larger than Victoria and Tasmania combined, covering an area of approximately 345,400km2 and stretching more than 2,300 km along the northeast coast of Australia. The Great Barrier Reef is one of the richest and most complex ecosystems in the world.

Marine life in the Great Barrier Reef is diverse with approximately:

  • 1,500 species of fish
  • 360 species of hard coral
  • 1/3 of the world's soft coral

The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park contains more than 900 islands, of these, 618 are continental islands. The park has 300 coral cays of which 230 are permanently vegetated. The remainder are small, bare sand cays that shift in response to winds, waves and currents. The Continental shelf provides the platform from which the reefs of the Great Barrier Reef develop.

ACTIVITIES:
There are a few coral cays near Port Douglas, these are popular with commercial film and modelling agents. Weddings can be catered for, with ceremonies conducted on the cay. Visits to cays are more determined by tidal movement compared to island visits.

Several island groups in the area provide a unique day for guests to disembark Phantom. Guests can walk around some islands in 15 minutes or spend the day at the beach, great for small children to learn swimming and snorkelling from the island shore. Many soft corals are present in shallow island waters with a variety of marine life especially turtles.
