Things You Wanted to Know About the Great Barrier Reef

Hi! I'm Mark. Welcome to my information site on the Great Barrier Reef. I'm guessing that you have annual holidays due and that is why you are here.

Wow! What an amazing adventure that will be.

Now if you are looking on a World Atlas to find out where the Great Barrier Reef is, you could be forgiven for thinking that you may be able to hire a dinghy for the weekend and, "Reef, here we come."

Not so, because when you looked on a Queensland map you would see that the Barrier Reef takes up a fair chunk of the ocean. You might choose to go on a luxury cruiseship, a budget tour, or charter a yacht and do your own thing. Whichever way, there's a fair amount of planning to be done.

That's why it's nice that you found my site, because if you are looking for Great Barrier Reef information to help you do this you've come to the right place. Forget about the travel books for the time being.

Stay with me and find out about all the wonderful fish and other marine animals you will see, and all the exciting things you will be able to do ... and where. As well, there are lots of beautiful Australian beaches.

You may also have time to stay on and see some of the hinterland.

As you follow through the pages you'll be able to choose which islands appeal to you the most... later on I will give you some info about the hinterlands.

In the meantime choosing which islands will not be an easy task, but it will be enjoyable.

I'll leave you now with one of my mother's favourite sayings...

...If you can go to bed having learned only one thing each day, you haven't wasted your day.

You won't learn it all before you go to bed, but GBR location would be a good place to start when you wake tomorrow.
